British Factory Foreman

Alternative Title: English Factory Foreman

Series Title: Life in Great Britain Today

Summary:

These six films were made in 1948, but with the vision to portray the forces still transforming British society. The people whose daily lives are shown represent this new and dynamic Britain, rejecting the traditional shackles of class, economic stagnation, and complacent attitudes. The whole series makes up what we believe is the only film portrait of Britain ever made from an American point of view. Photographed and directed by Kenneth Richter. (1964 IFF catalog)
