Recipient of two Oscar® nominations,
49th Parallel is a classic cinematic thriller set against the backdrop of World
War II. Featuring a high-powered cast (including Laurence Olivier, Leslie Howard,
and Glynis Johns), 49th Parallel follows six survivors from a sunken German
submarine as they flee across hostile and frozen Canada to reach the then-neutral
United States.
The Criterion edition includes audio commentary by film historian Bruce
Eder.
