THEY WHO DARE
(British Lion-Mayflower) HE last Lewis Milestone production I saw was (if memory serves) Halls of Montezuma, a tribute to the U.S. Marines. This latest war-piece brings us, if not to the shores of Tripoli, at least tolerably close to that neighbourhood. It is. however, a long way from the producer-
: director’s best efforts. The time "is late 1942, the Eighth Army stands on the Alamein Line, and enemy bombers-German and Italianare- coming over nightly from the Greek Islands. They Who Dare tells the story of a commando raid on Rhodes designed to neutralise two airfields there, and you will learn inter alia that it takes all kinds to make a commando unit. If I could produce a film as good as this one, of course, I wouldn’t be here. But Milestone made this-and I can’t forget that he also made All Quiet on the Western Front.
