This Land Is Mine

German troops hold a European town that looks a lot like France, and Albert Lory (Charles Laughton), a timid schoolteacher, would rather keep his head down and teach. Louise Martin (Maureen O'Hara), a fellow teacher he loves, and the town's collaborators and resisters, including George Lambert (George Sanders), keep pressing him to choose a side. Renoir, working in Hollywood, sets the whole occupation inside one town's classrooms and streets.
