Ha'penny Breeze*   
(GB 1950)
Associated British Pathe/The Storytellers. 72m. bw

Fishermen in the Suffolk hamlet of Pin Mill revive their ailing industry by entering into a nearby yacht race.
Quietly effective little local drama with one or two traits similar to Ealing but in much more semi-documentary settings (influenced by the Italian neorealists), with one or two entertainingly diverting moments.
