Bless 'Em All is a 1948 British musical comedy film directed by Robert Jordan Hill and starring Hal Monty and Max Bygraves, the latter in his screen debut.[1] The film is about three men who meet when they are called up for the Second World War and fight together in the Battle of France.
It is on the British Film Institute's 75 Most Wanted list of lost films; only a two-and-a-half minute trailer was known to survive at the time.[1] However, a reader notified BFI that a cut-down version titled Be Kind Sergeant was being offered for sale on eBay.[2]
