Cottage to Let (1941)
Director: Anthony Asquith
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Jaunty wartime fare with Cole as a crafty Cockney lad (he'd created the role in Geoffrey Kerr's play) evacuated to rural Scotland in time to stop a Glasgow-based spy ring getting their hands on inventor Banks' revolutionary new bombsight. Mills drops by as a passing parachutist, and Sim makes the most of his role as an éminence grise.Author: TJ
