Lady Hamilton

Vivien Leigh and Laurence Olivier enact the ill-fated romance of Horatio Lord Nelson and Emma Hamilton, wife of the British Ambassador to Naples. Made during WWII, the film was clearly meant to raise the morale of British audiences and was said to have been Churchill's favourite film.
