by Tom Clarke

Protest has become easy and respectable now. But for a young subaltern in 1917 to speak out against the horrors of the Western Front was unthinkable. One did. Second-Lieutenant Siegfried Sassoon, a young English country gentleman who made public his revulsion against the war.
This film, directed by Jack Gold, tells of the week in a Liverpool hotel when Sassoon re-examined his protest in spite of its complete rejection by Authority and the public.

talks to James Mossman
"Prison wasn't fun... but it was a remarkable school for life... it brings you down to such reality..."
"Gorky was not a man, he was a universe"

Baroness Moura Budberg is one of the most remarkable but lesser-known women of her generation. Now in her 70s, she was born of a Russian liberal family and as a young girl knew life at the Imperial Courts of the Tsar and Kaiser Wilhelm II. In 1917 she was imprisoned by the Bolsheviks and later met the great Russian writer Maxim Gorky, some of whose works she has subsequently translated. She came to England in 1933 and met many of the famous literary people of the time, notably H.G. Wells, who was a close and intimate friend.
In this conversation with James Mossman she gives a remarkable and moving account of her early life in Russia and the people with whom she was closely associated after the Revolution.
