A strong story of true heroism

In 1914 nurse Edith Cavell (Sybil Thorndike) works in a Brussells care home when World War I breaks out. Through the war she uses the home as a cover helping 210 British PoWs escape from the Germans back home to England before she is caught.

Adapted from the play by Reginald Berkeley, Herbert Wilcox's film perfectly captures the heroism of Nurse Edith Cavell led by a superb and rare early performance by stage actress Thorndike. Ada Bodent appears as herself as one of the Belgian citizens who helped Cavell.
