Movie review for the day: TMWNW


The Man Who Never Was was made when Rico was just a baby, but it's held up incredibly well. Starring Clifton Webb as Lieutenant Commander Ewen Montagu (who wrote the book) and Gloria Grahame as Lucy Sherwood (who lost her RAF boyfriend and had a great cry over him), it's the true story of a British attempt to trick the enemy into weakening Sicily's defenses before their subsequent attack in 1943, using a dead man with faked papers.

Rico says it's worth watching, even again...
