Valutazione di jon-285
Very tame British comedy, with a host of actors who should have had a better director.
Notable mainly for the outdoor location shots of Brighton in Sussex, England, and therefore as an historical document showing the seafront, the shops, the pier and Brighton North Station making, I believe its movie debut.
I have a poor quality copy of the film lifted off British TV if anyone really wants one, it is in VHS PAL though.

When this film was made England was still a society divided by class, one's accent, manners, clothes and speech defined one's background and determined one's future.
England was still recovering from WWII, many parts of London were still bomb sites, some food was still on ration, especially sweets, and although the manufacturer's catalogues were full of wonderful items that they were making, many were "For Export Only", essentially to the United States in payment for war loans.
Against this background of priviledge; for the upper class probation officer; and the difficult working class origins of the probationees; all set in war-ravaged London with as fine a collection of actors that could be assembled; I Believe in You is a minor classic of its time,one of the earliest films depicting real people and their problems rather than the glamourous lives of the movies the propaganda ministries wanted us to see.
Many of the outdoor locations show parts of London never before seen on the big screen, and these too provide interest for anyone interested in locations of movies.

Recently shown on Italian TV, and really worth seeing,if you haven't before, and if you have, then its certainly worth watching again.
Great direction, good acting, and numerous cameos from several well known British bit part actors.
I have a copy, lifted off the TV, its in English, English PAL, and VHS, if you'd like a copy let me know.
The location shots are interesting, not all in tourist areas, and those that are take an unusual perspective. Much filmed in north London in the Hampstead area.
