Constance Bennett both produced and starred in the espionager Paris Underground. Bennett and Gracie Fields play, respectively, an American and an English citizen trapped in Paris when the Nazis invade. The women team up to help Allied aviators escape from the occupied city into Free French territory. The screenplay was based on the true wartime activities of Etta Shiber, who engineered the escape of nearly 300 Allied pilots. British fans of comedienne Gracie Fields were put off by the scenes in which she is tortured by the Gestapo, while Constance Bennett's following had been rapidly dwindling since the 1930s; as a result, the heartfelt but tiresome Paris Underground failed to make a dent at the box-office. It would be Constance Bennett's last starring film--and Gracie Fields' last film, period. close

Victory at Sea is a documentary television series about naval warfare during World War II that was originally broadcast by NBC in the USA in 1952–1953. It was condensed into a film in 1954. Excerpts from the music soundtrack, by Richard Rodgers and Robert Russell Bennett, were re-recorded and sold as record albums. The original TV broadcasts comprised 26 half-hour segments—Sunday afternoons at 3pm in most markets—starting October 26, 1952 and ending May 3, 1953. The series, which won an Emmy award in 1954 as "best public affairs program", played an important part in establishing historic "compilation" documentaries as a viable television genre.
Over 13,000 hours of footage gathered from US, British, German and Japanese navies during World War II were perused in the making of these compelling episodes. close

On June 6, 1944, the largest military invasion (and opposition to it) the world has ever seen began. D-Day tells the epic story of the preparation and implementation of the Allied landings in Normandy. It is the story of the defense of the Western Front by the German Army and the complex deadly secret war of the men and women of France and continental Europe.
The film brings to life dramatic and outstanding examples of courage and sacrifice, joy and despair, love and betrayal. Planning for the June 6 invasion took two years and cost thousands of lives. It involved deception of marvelous courage. Both the preparation and the events and actions of the day itself relied on the free choice of the many, and the nerves of some. D-Day explores an intricate mosaic on both sides - imagining events through the eyes of the men and women who were there and telling us their standout stories. close
