Take Eric Ambler, Carol Reed, Peter Ustinov, David Niven, Stanley Holloway, William Hartnell, Leo Genn, and Tessie O'Shea, mix them all together and what have you got? A classic World War II film.

The movie, BTW, had its origins in an army training film, The New Lot, written by Ustinov and Ambler.
There are so many British films from that period I have never seen.
