Fantastic Film! Should of made it big! A+++++++++++++++++++++, 4 September 2005
10/10
Author: drunkenmonkey5823 from United Kingdom

This film is rare to find but I have a copy of it on VHS which I purchased from a US hard-to-find video site, and loved it! Great acting ability from the adorable Glynis Johns and Verena Rice. Edna Best is a delight, Mary Morris shows real skills and Martita Hunt brings a lot to her role.

With the superb Director, Brian Desmond Hurst, and the well known Producer, Alexander Korda, the only reason I can think that this film did not do well is because I heard that the main star, Corinne Luchaire, got together with a German Nazi just after the films release.

Such a shame! Enjoyed the film greatly all the same and wish it could be released in the stores! A+
