Campbell's Kingdom (1957)
Country: GB
Technical: col 102m
Director: Ralph Thomas
Cast: Dirk Bogarde, Michael Craig, Stanley Baker, Barbara Murray
Synopsis:
An ailing Englishman goes to Canada to take possession of his grandfather's eponymous land, but has to fight opposition from a ruthless contractor and locals who want to flood it by building a hydroelectric dam.
Review:
An expensive Rank production of its time - locations, a roster of top contract players - and around ten years behind its American equivalent. That said, the setting is unusual for a British film and the handling is reasonably fresh.
