The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp

Powell and Pressburger's stately, intimate drama about Boer War and World War I veteran Clive Candy (played beautifully by Roger Livesey) who struggles to adapt to the military manners of the World War II. A lifetime of experience is cleverly charted through his friendship with German officer Anton Walbrook and his romances with Deborah Kerr, who plays the three women in Candy's life.

Dir Michael Powell, Emeric Pressburger, UK 1943, 163 mins, U
