The Powell & Pressburger Pages Dedicated to the work of Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger and all the other people, both actors and technicians who helped them make those wonderful films. A lot of the documents have been sent to me or have come from other web sites. The name of the web site is given where known. If I have unintentionally included an image or document that is copyrighted or that I shouldn't have done then please email me and I'll remove it. I make no money from this site, it's purely for the love of the films. [Any comments are by me (Steve Crook) and other members of the email list]

Fascinating trivia (and any goofs) connected with the film

---

- Can anyone identify the barman? Michael thought it might be George Carney who is also Mr Webster (Joan's dad) in IKWIG and the father of Sally (Deborah Kerr) in Love on the Dole.

- What about one of the reporters just after David Barr makes the offer to MacLeod, the banker. Could that be Sebastian Shaw again?

- When David, June and Lord Dean fly back to Dundee after the tests on the new hull in the water tank that can simulate sea conditions (could that be at the National Physical Laboratory in Teddington?), they fly on a big old passenger bi-plane. The registration is G-AAC. Can anyone tell us what it is?
