In 1942, London is in the middle of the Blitz. The city is blacked out and bombs shatter the night. Charlotte Gray is an ordinary woman who travels from Scotland to London to see how she can help. At a party, she meets Peter, a battle-weary RAF pilot on leave, and they fall in love. But the affair is abruptly halted when Peter is called back into service and his plane is shot down over France. If he is alive, he is probably hiding, sheltered by the French Resistance. Soon, Charlotte is also on her way to France, for like many women fluent in French, she has been recruited as a secret agent, working to support the Resistance. She could have asked for an assignment at home, but instead she jettisons fear, accepting a dangerous mission behind enemy lines, keeping secret her personal mission to find her missing lover. In a world where secrecy is all around, she discovers that she can only trust what is in her heart. (texto oficial do distribuidor)

A câmara, os trajes e a representação histórica geral do cenário e da época são muito bonitos. Mas o enredo não tem motor e o filme é demasiado moderado e televisivo e sem piada até ao último quarto. Mesmo Cate Blanchett não se destaca no filme, como se seguisse as instruções da realizadora de «menos é por vezes mais». Se não fosse a dramatização no final, o filme ter-me-ia deixado tão desinteressado como uma leitura de um livro desinteressante.

Despite the excellent camera work, it is quite an average affair, mainly due to the script, which takes the somewhat cumbersome subject matter too seriously, thus undermining the tension. However, the characters ultimately find their way into the viewer's heart, and thanks to the captivating performance by Cate and the excellent Gambon, boredom is not a concern.
