CAST:
(Imperadio Pictures Ltd.) |
Starring Anna Neagle and directed by href="herbert_wilcox.html">Herbert Wilcox, Nurse Edith Cavell is the gripping true story of an English nurse caught up in the horrors of the First World War. Working tirelesly to save lives in a Brussels hospital, Edith Cavell makes no distinction between the civilian casualties, Allied troops and the German soldiers brought in for treatment. However, her sympathy for the plight of the Belgians and the rapacious behaviour of their German conquerors soon leads her to become involved with a secret underground resistance movement. Fearless for her own safety, she helps thousands of refugees and escaped POWs cross the border into the safety of Holland. As the German high command starts to become suspicious of her activities, she faces being branded a spy and execution by firing squad.... Supported by a distinguished cast that includes George Sanders, Mary Robson and Edna May Oliver, Anna Neagle gives a bravura performance as one of the true heroines of the First World War.
