Film adaptation edit

In 1944 it was made into a film of the same title by the Hollywood studio RKO Pictures. Directed by Clifford Odets it starred Cary Grant as Ernie Mott along with Ethel Barrymore, Barry Fitzgerald and June Duprez.[1] It was noted for its unusual subject matter, as most Hollywood films of the period portrayed Britain in a much more positive light.[2]
