Sir John vs Sir Ken. Sir John wins because this poor melodrama will die very soon of old age. In 20 years time people will look at it again and then stuff it back down the back of the sofa. In the 1958 version they went through gain, loss, pathos, tragedy with good acting/script whilst this one had a masked man farting. The 1958 film is far, far more superior.

When I watched the recent 1917 film, a friend who was going to see it asked if it was a as bad as this film (clearly it isn't). It says something about a film that is so bad that it is a yardstick by which others are judged.

Avoid.
