I saw this movie on TV 40 years ago and also have always remembered this opening, as well as the theme song, and have now seen and heard it again for the first time since the early 1970s.
But...
I doubt very much that in France in late 1945 anyone had multiple chocolate bars, as this woman claims to, to be able to give to that brat kid.
And I also wondered if the compartment doors on French trains would really open that way while the train was in motion.

@hebneh Good points. Brit movie at a time when movie makers didn't worry too much about the finer details? Thanks for the comment.

A "must see" suspense/thriller.
Anyway that "araneus1" can streamline this movie?
So want to see it again.

I know this via John Dankworth's superb theme music, yet to see the film but I'm going to seek it out

Definitely sets a mood and provides some information as to what is on the minds of the characters.
