Description
Release Date: 29 January 2007
If official documentation didn't exist, we'd never believe a fantastic yarn and amazing recounting of real-life events like I Was Monty's Double.
At the height of World War II an actor, ME Clifton-James, was seconded to impersonate General Montgomery. Trained by Major Harvey (John Mills) to imitate Monthom to the last detail, Harvey then sends the actor on a tour of North Africa, the better to divert the German's attentions away from the real "Monty".
An ingenious idea, treated here with a blend of wry humour and total conviction by director John Guillermin, ME Clifton-James recreates his real-life role and holds his own against a formidable cast including Leslie Phillips, Bryan Forbes (who also scripted) and John Le Mesurier.
