My interest in this film lies in the opportunity it affords to see Laughton in a most uncharacteristic role and an early view of V. Leigh. Both went on to most distinguished careers and were very versatile. Laughton was able to play anything on offer and Miss Leigh was a joy to watch in any part from a neurotic in 'Deep Blue Sea' to that most accomplished lady Scarlett O'Hara, a wonderful character which she played to perfection.
The economical production was also a very interesting example of the British film industry of the time, completely studio bound.
I enjoyed it very much.
