Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })5 Fingers is a World War II spy film directed by Joseph L. Mankiewicz, starring James Mason, Danielle Darrieux and Michael Rennie. It's based on the true story of Elyesa Bazna, a spy who posed as the British ambassador's valet.Ulysses Diello, the suave, amoral valet to the British ambassador in neutral Turkey, plans to get riches and status by passing Allied secrets to the Germans. He is given the codename Cicero by the Germans.It was very loosely adapted into a 1959 TV series, also called Five Fingers.Not to be confused with the 2006 film or 2012 Korean series, both of which have the same title. | |

Chronic Backstabbing Disorder / No Honour Among Thieves: The norm. Anna betrays Diello, then the Germans decide Diello has outlived his usefulness, upon which Diello escapes them and unabashedly accepts the British offer to "turn" him, then he eludes both sets of would-be masters and escapes to South America with his final payment for providing details of Operation Overlord. There at last he finally attains the life of a gentleman with servants of his own, until his arrest for passing counterfeit money - the British banknotes with which the Germans had paid him were forgeries. | |

| 5 Fingers (1952) / int_a90fff3 | comment |
Based on a True Story: Most of the film, though it veers into Very Loosely Based on a True Story for the final part. Agent Cicero did exist, really was the valet of the British ambassador to Turkey, and was for some time an immensely successful spy. The first part of the film is fairly true to life, although the real Cicero was called Elyeza Bazna, spoke poor English and was far from the perfect facsimile of an English gentleman Diello is. The second part of the film concerning the pursuit after Cicero flees the Ambassador's residence is pure fiction. | |
