“UNMASKING THE PLOT OF THE YEAR!”
The Unwritten Code is an offbeat better-than-average Columbia wartime "B" picture. Though Ann Savage and Tom Neal are top-billed the central character is supporting-actor Roland Varno. He plays a Nazi spy who sneaks into the U.S. hoping to release hundreds of German prisoners. He fails but not until plenty of bullets have been spent. The most interesting aspect of The Unwritten Code is the casting of Savage and Neal as the "good" characters: in 1945 these two cult favorites would play the decidedly unsavory protagonists of the film noir classic Detour.
