Sword of Honour - Trailer

"More powerful and moving by the minute" —The Times (U.K.)
Thirty-five-year-old Englishman Guy Crouchback returns home from Italy at the start of the war determined to fight the good fight. Horrified by Nazi barbarism and emotionally shattered by a painful divorce, Crouchback eagerly accepts a post with the elite Royal Corps of Halberdiers. But nothing has prepared him for the absurd reality of life in the British army or the return of his irresistibly alluring ex-wife.
Based on Evelyn Waugh's semi-autobiographical World War II epic, Sword of Honour stars Daniel Craig (Casino Royale, Munich), Megan Dodds (Love in a Cold Climate), Richard Coyle (Coupling), and Leslie Phillips (Love on a Branch Line). Available on DVD at acornonline.com

when did it come out?

[Jlinck]

It came out on DVD in Nov 2006. I'm not sure when it was broadcast in the UK...

Is the earlier version with Freddie Jones as Apthorpe available anywhere?

I remember it as being more Waugh than the 2005 .

Without even seeing the movie, I can tell that Daniel Craig is far better suited to this role than James Bond. He's a much better actor than Pierce Brosnan, but Brosnan looks like Bond, and Craig just doesn't.

@bleushift Judging by your schoolboy usage of language, it's probably best that we should assume the opposite of what you say.

@MrAwsomeEd

The bit on the beach at night is supposed to be Dakar, West Africa, the bit with the strafing and bombs is the battle for Crete.
