movie world

Of all the propaganda films produced by Britain during the war, no motion picture was as shattering as this fictional — yet frighteningly real — story of heroes, traitors and graphic homeland terror.

Bramley End, an idyllic British town during the Second World War and a bunch of soldiers have just arrived on a mission to prepare the town for a potential German invasion. The soldiers are welcomed with warm greetings but after a few careless slips in their stories these uniformed men actually turn out to be those bleedin' Nazis on an undercover mission. In the days that follow, the men, women and children of the isolated town must single-handedly outsmart and destroy the Nazi force before their invasion can spread to the rest of an unsuspecting nation.

Leslie Banks, Thora Hird, Mervyn Johns and Basil Sydney star in this chilling thriller adapted from a short story by Graham Greene and produced by the legendary Ealing Studios that would later inspire both THE EAGLE HAS LANDED and RED DAWN. Rarely seen in America — where it received limited release under the title 48 HOURS — it remains as explicit and shocking a movie experience today as it was to wartime audiences more than 60 years ago.
