London Can Take It! (1940)
** 1/2 (out of 4)
WW2 era short talks about how the people of London prepare for a possible attack by the Nazis. This is a pretty interesting short that shows up the people train themselves and in some cases plan to fight back. There's nothing too special here but it's still interesting for the time.
You have several viewing options for this one including it being shown on TCM countless times a year and Warner has also released it in their James Cagney Collection.
