Review of This Happy Breed (1944) by Tom H — 05 Jun 2011
This is exactly how a stage play should be translated to the screen; retaining intimacy and refraining from unnecessary location or camera movement without feeling stale and contrived. David Lean's first solo directing outting is moving, funny and perfectly performed.
A true classic of British Cinema.
