About this product

Product Information

Based upon director John Boorman's experiences as a young boy during World War II, HOPE AND GLORY stars Sebastian Rice-Edwards as Bill Rowen. Seen mostly from the nine-year-old boy's perspective, the film is uniquely astute in exploring the exhilarating effect that the bombing of his London suburb and the war's general tumult has on a young boy, at least temporarily. After bombing raids, Bill and his mates scavenge through the rubble of destroyed buildings, carrying off still-smoking shrapnel as booty. When the boy's school is leveled by the bombing, putting the local kids on permanent vacation, the Luftwaffe pilot is hero for a day. For Bill's harried mother, Grace (Sarah Miles), the war is less amusing. Not only is her husband away fighting, but the war's disorder has made her children more difficult to control, especially her teenage daughter, Sue (Geraldine Muir), whose burgeoning sexuality makes Grace nervous about arriving Canadian troops. Then one day, while the Rowens are out, their house is demolished by a bomb, and Bill begins to see the war a little differently. Boorman's superb re-creation of the London blitz is likely the best account of that experience on film. Through the accretion of a myriad of brilliantly observed details, he immerses the viewer in the reality of wartime London yet gives due weight to the subjective nature of that experience for each of the family members in a film that's flawlessly executed by all hands.

    Arrived as described but took a week and 2 messages before it was shipped. I understand you had a stroke well over a year ago and that you have to rely on family members to ship items for you. I think you should let buyers know upfront in your auction description so they donโ€™t have to message you as to why their items take a week or more to ship. I bought this book from you because you live in the same city as me. I bought an item 2 days after this 1 from CA and it arrived before this book did.

    Just as promised - An Escape from the Ordinary

    So glad to finally have this jewel of a film for our collection. We loved this as kids. Just as described, it tells the story of London's WWII from a child's viewpoint. But now, seeing it through the eyes of an adult, as a parent makes it so much more special - it really works on all levels. And grandpa - curmudgeonly, eccentric and so poignant in his resigned embrace of the'law of life' remains the favorite of everyone in my family.

    WWII coming-of-age masterpiece

    The technical merits of this transfer are sub-par, but the fact that it's the only digital transfer available makes it well worth the purchase. Engaging and exciting must see coming-of-age family drama filled with well-developed characters and great performances, especially by the adorable lead Sebastian. Beautifully photographed. Have the honor of knowing one of the film's assistant directors. No English subtitles, but closed-captioned. Rated PG-13 for thematic elements including an intense sequence of war violence, sexual content and some strong language.
