Best British Film | 1950
When Sammy and Susan are at the Hickory Tree nightclub, Susan spots Gillian, an old acquaintance, and asks Sammy to start talking, to avoid the meeting. Sammy starts, and then Susan joins in reciting the following lines: "I never nurs'd a dear gazelle / To glad me with its soft black eye / But when it came to know me well / And love me, it was sure to die." These lines are from the poem "Lalla Rookh" (in the section entitled "The Fire Worshipers") by the Irish poet Thomas Moore (1779-1852).
This film marked the return of Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger to Alexander Korda's London Films, after a successful but rather strained period at Rank.
Robert Morley, who plays "The Minister" is credited at the end as simply "A Guest." His name never appears.
The film takes place in March 1943.
This film is part of the Criterion Collection, spine #441.
"Susan: Wouldn't it be silly to break up something we both like doing, only because you think I don't like it. Sammy Rice: Yes, you've got it all worked out in the way women always have. They don't worry about anything except being alive or dead."
"Sammy Rice: I must have a drink. Ask me to have a drink woman. Susan: Have a drink Sammy. Sammy Rice: Whisky? [Susan nods.] Sammy Rice: No thanks Susan."
