Henry Ford (July 30, 1863 – April 7, 1947) was an American industrialist, the founder of the Ford Motor Company, and sponsor of the development of the assembly line technique of mass production. His introduction of the Model T automobile revolutionized transportation and American industry. As owner of the Ford Motor Company, he became one of the richest and best-known people in the world. Ford spent most of his life making headlines, good, bad, but never indifferent. Celebrated as both a technological genius and a folk hero, Ford was the creative force behind an industry of unprecedented size and wealth that in only a few decades permanently changed the economic and social character of the United States. He is credited with "Fordism": mass production of inexpensive goods coupled with high wages for workers. Ford had a global vision, with consumerism as the key to peace. His intense commitment to systematically lowering costs resulted in many technical and business innovations, including a franchise system that put dealerships throughout most of North America and in major cities on six continents. Ford left most of his vast wealth to the Ford Foundation but arranged for his family to control the company permanently.

Plot: George Peppard plays a hard-driven industrialist more than a little reminiscent of Howard Hughes. While he builds airplanes, directs movies and breaks hearts, his friends and lovers try to reach his human side, and find that it's an uphill battle. The film's title is a metaphor for self-promoting tycoons who perform quick financial takeovers, impose dictatorial controls for short-term profits, then move on to greener pastures.

Plot: The film opens with a German air-raid over the skies of London, and moves to the attempts of the F.B.I. and Scotland Yard investigators trying to circumvent the attempts of a sabotage ring dedicated to impeding the flow of American airplanes and flying fortresses to Britain(on FDR's Lend-Lease program since the United States was not yet at war against Germany and Italy.) Tim Hanley is an American agent, posing as a lawyer connected with the United States Embassy in London, and Reggie Oliver, a Scotland Yard detective, posing as a music critic, who has a hard time understanding American slang. Both are keeping their eye on Carla Nillson, a famous singer, whom they suspect of espionage. They all meet in London, then in Lisbon, and eventually in New York City, where Carla sings on the radio under the auspices and sponsorship of Siudney Grenner, a wealthy candy manufacturer, who is in reality the head of the sabotage gang. Miss Nillson may or may not know that some of the songs she sings over the radio are in code, and give instructions to the enemy operatives about airplane shipments to England. And even if she doesn't know, will she still be implicated and subject to being arrested by Tim, whom she has fallen in love with? And if she is arrested, will Tim be waiting for her when the Allies defeat the Nazis?

Genres: Drama,I’m stuck… in a traffic jam,
Hands to my head as the lights turn red
I’m stuck… feels like quicksand
And times running out, gotta figure this out
Yeah it’s on… World War 3
As my head, my heart disagree.
Head says no, heart says yes, I’m my own worst enemy
(Chorus)
I’m forbidden, yes forbidden, I’m forbidden to say that
I love you…
I’m forbidden, yes forbidden, I’m forbidden to say that
I love you…
And I’m damned if I do, shamed if I don’t…
Yeah I’m forbidden, yes forbidden, I’m forbidden to say
that I love you…
One year, it’s like a lifetime with you all alone,
we've been through it all.
I can’t, no I can’t be a murderer
Just given it all, what more could they want than love!
Hey, in a second; we were lost now found once more
What feels right, seems so wrong
Yeah the truth will never lie…
(Chorus)
I’m forbidden, yes forbidden, I’m forbidden to say that
I love you…
I’m forbidden, yes forbidden, I’m forbidden to say that
I love you…
And I am dammed if I do, shamed if I don’t…
Yeah I’m forbidden, yes forbidden, I’m forbidden to say
that I love you…
Dammed if I do, shamed if I don’t
Torned if I do, blamed if I don’t
(Chorus)
I’m forbidden, yes forbidden, I’m forbidden to say that
I love you…
I’m forbidden, yes forbidden, I’m forbidden to say that
I love you…
And I am dammed if I do, shame if I don’t…
Yeah I’m forbidden, yes forbidden, I’m forbidden to say
that I love you…
I’m stuck… in a traffic jam...
