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]

The IKWIG School

---

At the beginning of I Know Where I'm Going! (1945) we see the young Joan growing up, with the opening credits shown on various things like a blackboard in the nursery, a milk cart outside her school and on the factory gates (the 'factory' actually being the front of Denham film studio with the addition of some hanging miniatures - note the way that part of the gate is obscured as it closes)
Dave Buckley tells us that the scene where young Joan runs out of her school and gets onto the horse-drawn milk cart was actually filmed at Harrow County School for Girls in Lowlands Road, Harrow. Now called the Harrow-on-the-Hill campus of Harrow College.

Now if only we can find a horse-drawn milk float we'll be able to re-create the scene

Here are a couple of more images that Dave supplied:
