Italo Bombolini (Anthony Quinn), the mayor of the wine-making hill town of Santa Vittoria, learns that the German occupation forces want to take all of Santa Vittoria's wine with them. The townspeople frantically hide a million bottles in a cave before the arrival of a German army detachment under the command of Sepp von Prum (Hardy Kruger). The Germans are given a few thousand bottles, but von Prum knows there is a lot more. The two very different men engage in a battle of wits. Finally, with time running out, a frustrated von Prum threatens to shoot Bombolini unless the hidden wine is given up, but no one speaks. Not being a fanatic, von Prum leaves without harming the mayor. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Secret of Santa Vittoria」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
