Additional InformationWENT THE DAY WELL is a solidly constructed wartime melodrama. Actually, the film covers 72 hours in the life of the small British village of Bramley Green, which serves as the focal point for an attempted German invasion. Immediately upon parachuting in the community, vicious Nazi officer Ortier (Basil Sydney) makes contact with local Fifth Columnist Oliver Wileford (Leslie Banks), using the film's British title as their password. Fortunately, Democracy is preserved when postmistress-telephone operator Mrs. Collins (Muriel George), picking up on a simple clue inadvertently left behind by the well-disguised Germans, alerts her neighbors of impending danger. The British home guardsmen and German soldiers seen in the film were drawn from the ranks of of the real-life Gloucestershire Regiment, who volunteered their services for this patriotic morale-booster.

Beating dem dere Jerries !
Just liked to remind my self of how resilient our people were back in WWII. Pure propaganda of course, but so what.....films like this lifted the country during some really dark days. Enjoyed this film just as much as I did when I was a Kid and there were only a couple of TV channels to choose from !Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Classic British Film
A film made during the war showing what could happen if the German army had tried to launch an invasion. A group of German paratroopers disguised as British tommys descend on a quiet English village. This film doesn't hold back on the horrors of war and whilst it may not show in graphic detail it is still hard hitting and shocking at times. Well worth checking this gem of a film.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

well worth watching!
Early wartime British film, very engaging, as this scenario could easily have come about,at that time! A bit slow and corny in places, but well worth watching.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
