Re: 10 Desert Island War Films
Day 7 Land and Freedom. One of the better films on the SCW. A period I have always fancied having a go at.
My father tried to volunteer to go to fight in Spain but they told him to bugger off as he was to young.

I am not sure about the blurb either.

It's been a while since I last watched it, but I don't recall seeing any women in the film.

Sometimes buggers can't be choosers.
