Tell England (1931) watch online

Tell England (U.S. title: The Battle of Gallipoli) is a 1931 British drama film directed by Anthony Asquith and Geoffrey Barkas and starring Fay Compton, Tony Bruce and Carl Harbord. It was written by A. P. Herbert and Anthony Asquith based on the 1922 novel Tell England by Ernest Raymond, which featured two young men joining the army, and taking part in the fighting at Gallipoli.

Both directors had close memories of Gallipoli, as did Fay Compton's brother, Compton Mackenzie.Asquith's father H. H. Asquith had been Prime Minister at the time of the Gallipoli Landings, a fact which drew press attention to the film, while Barkas had fought at Suvla Bay in the Gallipoli campaign.
