Robert Jones: 케네스 그리피스 분)와 수캐 모간(Morgan the Goat: 콜 미니 분)의 주도하에 마을 사람들은 두 측량사의 발을 묶어두기 위한 음모를 꾸민다. 결국 두 사람은 예정대로 떠나지 못하고 마을 사람들은 남녀노소 할 것 없이 모두 총동원되어 피농가루 언덕으로 흙을 실어 나른다. 온종일 작업한 끝에 14피트 높이까지 흙을 쌓는데 성공하지만 그날밤 억수같이 장대비가 쏟아져 공든 탑은 절반 가까이 무너져 내려버리는데...

Harry's Pal in Billiard Hall
Depressing and realistic family drama about the struggles of unemployment and poverty in 1930s Lancashire. The 20-year-old Kerr gives an emotionally charged performance as Hardcastle, one of the cotton workers trying to make life better. Interlaced with humour that brings a ray of sunshine to the pervasive bleakness, this remains a powerful social study of life between the wars, and was a rare problem picture to come out of Britain at the time.
George Smerdon
Eden Philpotts' "provincial" comic novel and play The Farmer's Wife was first filmed in the silent era by Alfred Hitchcock. The 1940 talkie version was directed by Leslie Arliss, son of stage star George Arliss. The story remained the same: A middle-aged widower attempts to select a wife from his rural district's eligible females (Basil Sydney). Three unsuccessful dalliances later, the farmer settles for his housekeeper, whom the audience has been rooting for all along. The Farmer's Wife is a prime example of the sort of fare that struck a proper chord with British filmgoers, but whose appeal would be lost to any other nationality.
