About A Welcome to Britain
An uncredited Anthony Asquith is one of the directors of this WWII film (a joint UK/US production) which aims to explain British culture and character to the newly arrived American soldier. Starting with the ubiquitous pub visit, the film breezes through geography lessons, food and entertainment on the Home Front.
Directed by Anthony Asquith, Burgess Meredith, A Welcome to Britain leans on a strong ensemble — Burgess Meredith, Bob Hope, Jacob L. Devers — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 1943.
