synopsis

A mismatched collection of conscripted civilians finds training tough. Carol Reed's semi-documentary feature film was one of many flag-waving movies intended to bolster morale during World War II, but the compassion and realism of The Way Ahead (scripted by Eric Ambler and Peter Ustinov) ensures its place in cinema history.
