The Pied Piper, starring Monty Woolley, Roddy McDowall, and Anne Baxter, is a 1942 American film directed by Irving Pichel. The movie is based on the novel of the same name by Nevil Shute.

The story takes place during the German invasion of France in 1940. John Sidney Howard (Monty Woolley), a British curmudgeon, is on vacation in the south of France when he finds himself caught up in the chaos. He reluctantly agrees to help a couple, the parents of two children, Ronnie (Roddy McDowall) and Sheila (Peggy Ann Garner), escape to England. As they journey through occupied France, they meet other refugees, including a young boy named Pierre, whose parents were killed in an aerial attack.

Reception

The Pied Piper was praised for its light-hearted and entertaining take on the war, despite being set during a time of great turmoil. The film’s tone is often described as whimsical and adventurous, making it a unique departure from other war movies of the time. The performances of the child actors, particularly Roddy McDowall and Peggy Ann Garner, were also widely praised.
