D: William Wyler. Merle Oberon, Laurence Olivier, David Niven, Flora Robson, Donald Crisp, Geraldine Fitzgerald, Leo G. Carroll, Cecil Kellaway, Miles Mander, Hugh Williams.

D: Alexander Korda. Vivien Leigh, Laurence Olivier, Alan Mowbray, Sara Allgood, Gladys Cooper, Henry Wilcoxon, Heather Angel. Olivier and Leigh--both breathtakingly beautiful--enact ill-fated historical romance of Lord Admiral Nelson and Lady Emma Hamilton in American- made film intended to spur pro-British feelings.
