‘Think of England,’ WWII Satire About Secret U.K. Mission to Make Morale-Boosting Porn, Sets Ensemble Cast (EXCLUSIVE)


'Think of England,' a WWII satire about a secret U.K. mission to make morale-boosting porn, has wrapped shooting with an ensemble cast

As the description goes, “Think of England” is the story of the other, following a small and very disparate group of people sent to a remote Orkney island beach and tasked with a top secret mission — the making of pornographic films for the boys at the front. The group of would-be pornographic filmmakers include a very war-damaged former movie star; a celebrated German film-director; a munitions-machinist-come-aspiring-actress; an Etonian captain from the Ministry of Information; an aging, alcoholic hair-and-makeup artist; and a young lad, as innocent as can be and right on the very threshold of war’s bloodbath. An ensemble of talent has been cast in the the roles, including Jack Bandeira (“Lockwood & Co”), Natalie Quarry (“ Call The Midwife “), John McCrea (“Cruella”), Ronni Ancona (“Big Impression”), Ben Bela Böhm (“Angels & Demons”), Ollie Maddigan (“The Olive Boy”) and Oscar Hoppe (“Munich: The Edge of War”).
