tonight peter gabriel still growing up live and unwrapped, and growing up live. two fantastic dvds. dts 5.1 if you like Gabriel they are a must have

Not yet watched but the Saturday Telegraph had the cover mount DVD of Pygmalion [Play by GB Shaw, and also screenplay] with Leslie Howard as Prof Higgins. Howard's last film role was as RJ Mitchel, the designer of the Spitfire, in the 1942 film 'The First Of The Few.' Walton wrote the wonderful score, and poor Mr Howard died in action himself within weeks of the completeion...

I cannot wait to see Pygmaion, made in 1937.

not in action he was on a plain with other film stars that went down.regards munch

Last night watched "The Wild" (My partner loves the modern animation movies!). Absolutely fantastic image quality. She liked the story, I loved the technical aspects. Looked wonderful up-resed to 1080 on my plasma screen.

Dear Munch,

I was able to check my source on this and whilst that is no guarantee as it is the background notes on the Video Issue of 'The First Of The Few,' the quotation runs as follows:

"...Leslie Howard (who also directs, and who tragically went missing in action shortly after the film was made) as RJ MItchell..."

If you have a reference that you could give me that shows his death was "not in action," as you state, I would be most grateful and interested, as certainly the issuers of the film have no business to put such a gloss onto it, if this reporting of Howard's death is not true.

Kindest regards from Fredrik

Hi Fredrik there is some film of him getting on a noncombat flight with others that were not military ,and it was shot down .they think. If its the same man that was in gone with the wind.kind regards munch

I think he was in 'Gone With The Wind' - what a tedious film[!] - so I guess that is it.

Kindest regards from Fredrik
