Escapade [1955] [DVD]John Mills (actor) Alastair Sim (actor)
Format: all-region dvd (worldwide) Runtime: 84 min Quality: Excellent, b&w, 4:3
From imdb: The action in this charming (yes) Cold War comedy centers around the brilliant, extraordinary son of Mills - a son who is never seen, but who has become a school hero, then a national, and finally, an international hero! At turns moving and hilarious, this film is how a highly civilised people react to the dread of atomic war - I refer to the writers. The enemy is hardly the West, of course, but amongst the freest of humanity, complacency and lassitude reign. But in this wonderful tale, one boy ignites (almost literally - you will know what I mean) the minds of young Britons. |
