Cold Comfort Farm (1968)
I prefer this one to the later movie.

To me, this really is a case where the BBC beat John Schlesinger. The 1971 PBS showing was so good, it did cause me to find the Stella Gibbons and read it. If it was only for the Alistair Sim portrayal of Amos Starkadder, this one would still be worth watching.

Across the Pacific (1942)
Pearl Harbor was the original story's target
4 April 2002 - 5 out of 7 users found this review helpful.
In the original story, published in the Saturday Evening Post before the US was thrust into WWII, the target for the Japanese was Pearl Harbor, not the Panama Canal. Real events forced the movie to change the target from one that the Japanese successfully attacked to one where Bogart could prevent a Japanese victory.
