This Was Paris is a 1942 British Second World War spy film directed by John Harlow and starring Ann Dvorak, Ben Lyon and Griffith Jones.
British Captain Bill Hamilton meets and is attracted to American fashion designer Ann Morgan in Paris during the Phoney War stage of hostilities.
The fashion house where she works is a center of German fifth columnists, headed by Van Der Stuyl and Madame Florien.
Her friend, Count Raul De La Vague, however, has been gulled by Van Der Stuyl and Madame Florien into believing that they are working for Franco-German peace and cooperation against communism.
Bill and Ann reach Paris and exchange words with the triumphant Madam Florien before joining the stream of refugees.
