This week we're back in the desert of North Africa with a forgotten gem from Ealing Studios. 1943's Nine Men follows a lost section of British infantry, commanded by Jack Lambert, as they're besieged by attacking Italian infantry. Directed by Harry Watt Nine Men is a gripping and surprisingly visceral film which fans of The Way Ahead and Sahara will love.
