They don't make em! like this any more, I watched Tunes of Glory last night with Alec Guiness, John Mills, Dennis Price etc., what an entertaining film and excellent acting, those were the days when the film makers and studios turned out quality films and not relying on computerised special effects.

I heartily agree - the old films were better quality even though the technology was less sophisticated. I recall seeing this Scottish regimental story 3 or 4 decades ago. First time I'd seen John Mills in a kilt.

 

It reinforced in me a quote by Michael Caine. British military films are about OFFICERS - I like the American war films that feature enlisted men. (He had been enlisted in the real life 1950-1953 Korean War.
