There was a type of British comedy film which they were careful never to send over to the States. I suspect it was because in their hearts they knew that some time in the future Masterpiece Theater was going to do more for America's image of Britain than Churchill, the Tudors and Noel Coward would do rolled into one. And these comedies would make Masterpiece Theater unbelievable. These were comedies that were just as brash and broad as Coward's diction was clipped and upper class.

8.Forever England [1935] starring: Betty Balfour, John Mills, Barry MacKay, Jimmy Hanley, Howard Marion-Crawford

DVD : Forever England [1935]
This film, made between the wars, is a well-crafted dramatisation of C.S. Forester's moving and ironic World War One story, "Brown on Resolution."

Which is for ever England ..."


Albert Brown, the British seaman who wages a single-handed fight against a German armoured cruiser is brought to life brilliantly by John Mills (later Sir John Mills). It was one of the first films in which he appeared, and I have heard it suggested, not least on the dust jacket of the 2002 release of this cassette, that the critical and commercial success of this film was a major ...
