About From the Four Corners
Members of three Commonwealth armies, an Aussie, a Canadian, and a New Zealander meet actor Leslie Howard who buys them a beer and makes them understand why they're fighting.
Directed by Anthony Havelock-Allan, From the Four Corners leans on a strong ensemble — J. Johnston, W. Atkinson, R. Gilbert — 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 drama titles of 1941.
