I finally got to see this film. (Yay - it's very good)
It has been on my list since it was mentioned, with the poem, in an interview on the dvd extras of another film, but I can't remember which ... can someone help?
CARVE HER NAME WITH PRIDE and the poem you speak of are referred to in the extras of the Criterion release of PEEPING TOM, as the poem was written by Leo Marks, who also wrote PEEPING TOM. I would love to see CARVE HER NAME...but alas, i cannot find a copy. Any ideas?
shareYup, the special features of Criterion's release of Peeping Tom were where I first heard of Violette Szabo's story and, by extension, this film.
