Product: The Man Who Never Was (2005)
Rating: 4.0
Great old time British film
This film would have been much more famous if Hitchcock had directed it. Ronald Neame does and excellent job. A true story of the Second World War with great locations (another good chance to get a look at the Spain of those times). But the fact that it is a true historical story makes it interesting enough.Besides, there's Gloria Graham doing an amazingly wonderful performance. It just amazed me how well she was in this role.This is the second film by Neame that I watch (after Tunes of Glory, which is even better) and both are wonderful movies.Typical, I would say, of the good-natured, common-man, and respectul films the British used to do before the Beatles generation. A bygone era of which this film reminds me with melancholy.The only thing that lessens a bit the value of "The Man Who never Was", in my opinion, is the other female character, who does not do such an excellent job as the rest of the cast.
