The Last Train from Madrid is a 1937 American war drama film directed by James P. Hogan and starring Dorothy Lamour, Lew Ayres and Gilbert Roland.
[2] The plot revolves around the story of seven peoples' lives and love affairs in Madrid during the Spanish Civil War.
As with Love Under Fire, another film about the Spanish Civil War in production at the time, the filmmakers were careful not to take sides.
[6] Writing for Night and Day magazine in 1937, Graham Greene offered an unfavorable review, describing The Last Train from Madrid as "probably the worst film of the decade."
Greene criticized the film's acting and noted that rather than experiencing the dialogue's intended "emotional and uplifting" message, he found it humorous.
