Bitter Victory (1957)

Time for one of my Terribly Exciting picspams. (It really isn't this time. That's what happens when you watch people who aren't David Collings and who never get eaten by hyenas. It's very sad

Chris Lee is standing round thinking, "I left the army for this?" (He was with the Desert Rats during the war so must have been having a bit of deja vu with this film.)

Yes, he really doesn't look thrilled, does he? :-)

that last picture is hilariously insane

Well, Norman Wisdom is having a nightmare about an Irish gangster firing multiple rounds at him, so, er, yes. That was the intent, I suppose! :-)

That last pic makes him look like a maniac!

He's in a nightmare Norman Wisdom's having, I think he's meant to be a maniac. :-)

Yes, I did read the post.

That model is awesome. It must have taken ages to make and probably swallowed up half the budget.

At least Alfred survived to the end of the film - good for him for not going on the mission.

As for the machine-gun-happy Alfred, well, he was shooting Norman Wisdom. I can't blame him for being ecstatic over that.

:lol: I'd never seen a Norman Wisdom film before this. There was quite a lot that must of taken some impressive choreography (which isn't quite the right word, but the best I can manage this morning) but, yes... I didn't especially want to see another or even finish this one. I watched till I got a scene with Dilys Laye and then fast-forwarded everything.
