The Inspector (1962 film)

The Inspector (also known as Lisa) is a 1962 CinemaScope DeLuxe Color British-American drama film directed by Philip Dunne, starring Stephen Boyd and Dolores Hart.

[3] Hart plays Lisa Held, a Dutch-Jewish girl who has survived the horror of Auschwitz concentration camp.

In 1946 Holland, Lisa Held, a survivor of the Auschwitz concentration camp during World War II, has fallen prey to ex-Nazi Thorens, who has promised to smuggle her into Palestine.

During their encounter, Jongman strikes Thorens, who accidentally falls onto one of the imitation SS daggers he sells, and dies.

Jongman takes time off, and decides to help Lisa reach Palestine to make amends for failing to save his Jewish girlfriend.

During the journey, Lisa and Jongman start to fall in love and gain the acceptance of the crusty but goodhearted Brandt.

Lisa and Jongman arrive at Tangiers, where they meet a Dutch smuggler named Klaus Van der Pink, but his price to arrange passage to Palestine is too high.

Jongman finds out from a British agent named Roger Dickens that he is wanted on suspicion of manslaughter for Thorens’ death.

Jongman arranges passage for them in one of Van der Pink's vessels in exchange for agreeing to captain for him for a year without pay.

As the ship nears Palestine, it must fend off an attack by gunrunners from North Africa who attempt to steal Van der Pink's cargo.

Jongman then gives himself up to the British in accordance with his agreement to return to stand trial for the accidental death of Thorens.

"At the height of her career, Dolores stunned the world by making the decision to become a cloistered nun and enter the Abbey of Regina Laudis.

"[4] On May 27, 2014, Mother Dolores Hart was the guest programmer for a broadcast of Lisa (aka The Inspector) on Turner Classic Movies with host Robert Osbourne.

[12] She dropped out and Robson cast Stephen Boyd and Dolores Hart – both under long term contracts to Fox.

[17] The conclusion of this epic was filmed at Three Cliffs Bay on the Gower Peninsula in South Wales, UK.

It is suggested that one of the film crew spotted the location during World War II when flying overhead in his aircraft.

The reviewer said Hart "escapes her ingenue parts of the past" and praised the supporting performers, calling Griffith a "droll delight.
