Flight from Folly (1945)

Flight from Folly is a 1945 British musical comedy film directed by Herbert Mason (in his last directorial credit before moving into production) and starring Patricia Kirkwood and Hugh Sinclair, with music from Edmundo Ros and his famous Rumba Band. Kirkwood had appeared in minor roles in four films between 1938 and 1940 before focussing her career on the West End stage, where she had become a major star during the war years. Flight from Folly was designed to give Kirkwood her first starring screen role, with the hope of breaking her out as a big-name film attraction as well as a stage star. By the time the film was released Kirkwood had travelled to the U.S. to take up a contract with MGM; however her time in the U.S. proved to be unhappy and traumatic. By 1947 she had returned to England where she picked up her successful stage career, making only rare film appearances thereafter.
