About Alarm at Station III
During the Prohibition the US government has been just as successful at stopping drinking as they have been in the War on Drugs. Customs Officer Arne Kolk is determined to stop the alcohol smugglers at any price.
Directed by Philipp Lothar Mayring, Alarm at Station III leans on a strong ensemble — Gustav Fröhlich, Jutta Freybe, Kirsten Heiberg — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about crime titles of 1939.
