Actor of the Year award. His accomplice is his devoted daughter
(Diana Rigg) and together they seek revenge in a most bloody and
violent way: one critic is decapitated in his bed, one is made to

One of the lesser-known Powell and Pressburger collaborations.
During the Second World War, scientist Sammy Rice (David Farrar)
works at a British research unit set up to solve the enemy's
methods of attack. Embittered after losing a foot in a bomb blast,
Sammy is increasingly seeking solace in drink. However, a budding
romance with his secretary, Susan (Kathleen Byron), and the
challenge of analysing a new German bomb provide him with a new
sense of meaning.
This semi-documentary, which made stars of Jack Hawkins and John
Gregson, is a look at life in an RAF fighter station during the
Battle of Britain. Set in the Summer of 1940, a squadron of
Hurricanes are followed as they take on the massive wave of
Luftwaffe fighters and bombers that are intent on breaking down
Britain's defences as a prequel to a German invasion. Without the
bravery of these pilots Britain may well have been invaded.
