    Tunes of Glory without a doubt.

    I lived a toned-down but similar situation.
    Acting CO (Civil Service rather than Armed Services.)
    Passed over for permanent promotion.
    Reverted to second in command.
    The new CO and I had differences.
    Mess loyalties divided.
    Full story another time.

    Time to get busy

    I have to admit, I have only really seen Braveheart and Tunes of Glory. I enjoyed both thoroughly but Tunes was better. Braveheart is great if you can suspend real history for 3 hours and just watch it as a piece of film. . . not a faulty portrayal of actual historical events. Guess it is time to netflix all these favorites. Maybe that will help me work on my scottish accent.

    Tunes of Glory.
    Small faces.

    Rob Roy, The Highland Rogue (1953)

    Rob Roy (1995)
    I liked most of the Rob Roy with Liam Neeson, but the graphic sexual brutality keeps me from seeing it again. I guess I am getting to the age when I would rather forget the horrible things I've seen.

    I know Where I'm Going (1945)
    Wendy Hiller played the girl in this one. She is famous for her role as Eliza Doolittle in Pygmalion back in 1938.
