Description: Further DetailsTitle: The Small Back RoomCondition: NewFormat: Blu-rayDescription: From the legendary filmmaking duo Powell and Pressburger (A Matter of Life and Death, The Red Shoes), The Small Back Room is the story of the troubled love affair between a tormented back-room scientist and a secretary, told against a background of ministerial intrigue and Empire building. Sammy Rice (David Farrar) was the army's finest bomb disposal officer until he was injured in the war. Now part of a specialist 'back room' team, he dismantles the boobytrapped devices being dropped by Nazi bombers. He falls in love with Susan (Kathleen Byron), a colleague, and the two begin a secret affair. However, embittered by life, he feels inferior: inferior as a lover, inferior as a man unable to wear uniform, inferior in his work. Although a brilliant scientist, he allows himself to be exploited by his power-hungry boss and haunted by his past, he drowns his sorrows in whiskey. Sammy's life is descending into disarray when the news comes; a bomb has exploded with catastrophic consequences, and another has been found. Faced with the biggest challenge of his career, Sammy must face his demons and take his own life in his hands to solve the mystery of the bomb's lethal mechanism.Director: Michael Powell, Emeric PressburgerGenre: Military & WarRating: PGRun Time: 108 minutesStudio: StudioCanalLanguage: EnglishEAN: 5055201847461Region Code: Region BSubtitle Language: Hard of Hearing EnglishNo Of Discs: 1Country/Region of Manufacture: United Kingdom, PolandRelease Date: 06/03/2024Actor: Leslie Banks, Michael Gough, Anthony Bushell, Walter Fitzgerald, Michael Goodliffe, Milton Rosmer, Henry Caine, Jack Hawkins, Emrys Jones, Renée Asherson, David Farrar, Cyril Cusack, David Fararr, Kathleen ByronMPN: OPTBD4416Release Year: 2024 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
