Kordall
Concluding the personal account of the life and career of Alexander Korda by fellow
Hungarian director Peter Sasdy. Korda rose from a poor background to become the first knight of the British film industry. The story opens in wartime, with Korda playing a surprising role as a spy.
Although there are still some remarkable films ahead of him, the sadness and loneliness of the private man lead to a bizarre decline in his fortunes and the remainder of his life proves a curious mixture of anguish and triumph. Producer Peter Sasdy
Series editor Nigel Williams
