"NURSE EDITH CAVELL" (1939)



Anna Neagle - Edna May Oliver - Zsa Zu Pitts - George Sanders

Excellent original print. Herbert Wilcox's first USA feature. Deeply moving dramatisation of the heroism of the English nurse Edith Cavell and her Belgian supporters, who smuggled about 200 Allied soldiers and airmen out of German-occupied Belgium until she was caught, tried and on 12 October 1915 shot at dawn. Notable for the immense restraint and dignity shown by Anna Neagle in the title role, caring equally for wounded German troops and completely unafraid of blustering German officers. A devout Anglican, above her duty to her country she placed the overriding duty of saving life.
