Given the time of creation, a certain naivety and fragmented screenplay are understandable, but still, I would expect something more sophisticated and lasting from Billy Wilder in a war environment. This way, the effort of the British soldier promises something that I will only experience in a few reserved moments. Despite clear disappointment, the third star is mainly saved by the likable Farid, portrayed perfectly by Akim Tamiroff. 50%

Billy Wilder may have been making films like The Major and the Minor up to the last minute, but with Five Graves to Cairo he signed on to current war propaganda. He adapted Lajos Biró's classic play "Hotel Imperial: Színmű négy felvonásban" (1917) and cast Erich von Stroheim as Field Marshal Erwin Rommel. The result is remarkable.
