[edit] Plot
Betrayed is an espionage thriller set in the Dutch resistance movement during World War II.
Dutch intelligence agent Pieter Deventer (Clark Gable) is ordered to keep his eyes on suspected quisling Fran Sailors (Lana Turner). Both Deventer and Sailors join the Dutch underground, making contact with a flamboyant resistance leader known as "The Scarf" (Victor Mature).
As 'Carla Van Oven', Sailors' assignment is to use her feminine charms to gain the confidence of admiring Nazi officers. Within the next few weeks, several underground operatives are captured and shot, and it begins to look as though Deventer's suspicions concerning Sailors are correct. However, the real collaborator is eventually unmasked.
