Although a pleasant movie, I DID notice the ridiculous scene when the nurse Donald Sinden regretted proposing to, told the other nurses he asked to marry her and she was going to say yes. However, they all turned round and were wearing the same flower he'd given her - all apart from one nurse, who was last to turn and (I think) said "even me, or me too, or such like), and it was actually a white woman with her face painted black.
I was going to ask Google, but it didn't go un-noticed by IMDB and has been mentioned... It's so bizarre to watch any of these old movies/comedy series from so long ago, and how acceptable this sort of thing was - cringe worthy to say the least!!
Pleasant enough movie otherwise and personally, I thought Dirk Bogarde was great in the part (I believe he went on to star in more movies as Simon Sparrow), but I feel he deserved more recognition for his other work, but sadly didn't do so well.
Kenneth More was obviously the favourite...
