"Carol Reed's first successful feature, based on A.J. Cronin's novel about the life of miners, is one of the best British films of the Thirties. Its delineation of life in a mining town, its sensitive creation of atmosphere, and such scenes as the lock-out, the pillaging of a local shop, and the disaster have a persuasive air of realism and deeply-felt sincerity. Cast includes Michael Redgrave, who gives one of his most persuasive performances, Margaret Lockwood and Emlyn Williams."@en
