Johnny Frenchman

This is a curiously timed Ealing film.It was released in the UK in October 1945.It's main theme seems to be promoting Anglo French entente.therefore one would think that it would have been a better film for a year earlier.There is no doubt that Francois Rosay acts everyone else off the screen,even Tom Walls who overcast wildly in most of his films and was bad at taking direction.As has been mentioned Patricia Fox is totally out of place with her RADA accent.I found this film rather overlong at 100 minutes.I last saw this at the NFT about 20 years ago,and have only gotten around to viewing the DVD 7 years after buying it.So not particularly memorable.
