A Yank at Eton
A Yank at Eton is an American comedy- drama film directed by Norman Taurog and starring Mickey Rooney, Ian Hunter, and Peter Lawford.
Released in 1942, it is a kind of junior version of the 1938 British- made hit film" A Yank at Oxford".
( Edmund Gwenn, who played a school official in the earlier film, has a similar role in this one.)
With the United Kingdom at war," A Yank at Eton" was filmed entirely in the United States.
" A Yank at Eton" tells the tale of a cocky American youth( played by Rooney) who has to move to Britain, where he is sent to attend the elite Eton College.
Lawford, in his first significant Hollywood role, plays an arrogant upperclassman who makes the newcomer's life particularly difficult.
Much of the storyline relates to the misunderstandings arising from differences between the two countries' cultures, customs and language.
At first these differences cause the boy confusion and anger, particularly against the traditional practices of fagging and physical hazing inflicted at Eton on the lower boys by the uppers.
The film caricatures Etonian manners and behavior as snobbish and stuffy, but in due course Rooney's character settles down, stops being rebellious and comes to realize that, beneath the different habits and views," Yanks" and" Limeys" have basic values in common and can get along when they have to.
The propaganda intent, as U.S. troops poured into the U.K. to join World War II in 1942, was evidently to show that Americans and Britons could set aside their superficial differences and pull together in the war effort.
The film has the Eton boating song as it s theme tune( played at a faster tempo than usual), though no boating is shown in the film.
