"★★★★ – One of the greatest (and sadly most forgotten) romantic comedies ever" – Empire

Headstrong Joan Webster (the wondrous Wendy Hiller) sets off to marry a rich older man on his remote Hebridean island.

Stranded on Mull thanks to the weather, Joan finds herself struggling to cope with the unplanned turn of events.

Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger weave their course of true love through flashes of surrealism, a life-threatening whirlpool and an ancient curse – disarming and enchanting in equal measure.

Screening as part of the major BFI season marking the most extensive celebration of Powell and Pressburger's work even undertaken, bringing a rich catalogue of their visually stunning and often-controversial films back to the big screen.
