豆知識

Major Barbara is a 1941 British film starring Wendy Hiller and Rex Harrison. The film was produced and directed by Gabriel Pascal and edited by David Lean. It was adapted for the screen by Marjorie Deans and Anatole de Grunwald, based on the 1905 stage play Major Barbara by George Bernard Shaw. It was both a critical and a financial success.

Production

Major Barbara was filmed in London during The Blitz bombing of 1940. During air raids, the cast and crew repeatedly had to duck into bomb shelters. The film's producer-director, Pascal, never stopped the production and the film was completed on schedule.

According to another account the film was meant to take ten weeks but took twenty weeks. The original budget of £130,000 was insufficient to complete it so J. Arthur Rank provided £100,000 necessary. This resulted in Rank making a full commitment to investing in films.
