Frank Launder(1906-1997)

Frank Launder and Sidney Gilliat worked as a team (Director/Producer/Writer) on 40+ films from 1930-1966.

[on directing Margaret Rutherford in The Happiest Days of Your Life (1950)] We could never put marks down for her, we just had to keep the camera rolling wherever she was likely to be. She can always make any line sound funnier than it really is. She would never do one take the same, but I like an artist like that. Margaret is an artist who has great moments, many great moments.
