Q Planes - Part 10 (Laurence Olivier, Ralph Richardson - Film)

(Part 10 of 10)

Sir Laurence Olivier, Sir Ralph Richardson, and Valerie Hobson star in "Q Planes," a 1939 British film about an investigation into the mysterious disappearance of several military planes. Olivier and especially Richardson frequently improvised on the set. The two men were good friends and ran the prestigious "Old Vic" theatrical company together in the 1940s. The character John Steed from the 1960s British TV show, The Avengers, was based on Richardson's quirky British secret service agent.

Also on my channel is an interview with Ralph Richardson, in which he shows himself to be even more eccentric in real life than his character was in this movie:

The movie "Q Planes" is also known as "Clouds Over Europe" in the United States. Tim Whelan directed, and Alexander Korda was the executive producer.
