Original British posters on this classic British war film are highly sought-after, and do not surface very often.

The British film director David Lean, who directed Great Expectations (1946) and Oliver Twist (1949) is perhaps best known for his epic films, The Bridge on the River Kwai, Lawrence of Arabia (1962) and Dr. Zhivago (1966).
