Hope and Glory
Director John Boorman drew out of his own childhood adventures for this particular story of a boy growing up in and about London. For Billy Rowan, the nightly bombings provide a show, but they include opportunities to rummage through the rubble with friends in the evenings. As Billy plays , his family struggles to stay undamaged since they suffer through declines and the anguish of wartime.
