Terence Young writes and directs this World War Two action drama. After the success of the Normandy landings, the British Guards Armoured Division sweeps across Europe, taking part in the liberation of Belgium before becoming entangled in the bloody German counter-attack in the Ardennes. Three soldiers are granted leave and return to their normal lives in England - but before long, they are recalled to duty and find themselves on the most perilous mission they have ever undertaken: a daring reconnaissance mission during the advance on Berlin.

A 17th century man of letters, renowned for the size of his nose but also his wit, falls in love with a beautiful lady but is too afraid of her reaction to his looks to declare his feelings. Jose Ferrer won an Oscar for his performance. The story was remade in France during 1990 starring Gerard Depardieu and also updated to the modern day in 'Roxanne' starring Steve Martin.
