Book description
A film-maker for more than 25 years, Lance Comfort has been one of the most unjustly neglected directors of British film history, argues a new book by Monash academic and film critic Brian McFarlane.

Thoroughly researched, the text provides a detailed discussion of Comfort's major works, from his apprenticehsip inthe 1930's and dominance of film-making in the 1940's, to his eventual obscurity 20 years later. Lance Comfort is a book that will appeal to students, researchers and lovers of British film.
