"I belong to a generation of men, most of whom aren't here any more. And we all did the same thing for the same reason no matter what we thought about politics. Now that's all over and done with and we're carrying on, the best we can, just as though nothing had happened. But as a matter of fact, several things happened, and one of 'em was, this country suddenly got tired. She's tired now. But the old lady's got stamina, make no mistake about that, and it's up to us ordinary people to keep things steady. And that's your job, and just you remember it."Nöel Coward's play following a family between the two world wars. David Lean's first solo film as director. With Eric Trommater, Yassi Soufi and Sila Blume.*Recorded May 16th, 2024*
