So Little Time

So Little Time is a 1952 British World War II romance drama, directed by Compton Bennett and starring Marius Goring, Maria Schell and Lucie Mannheim. The film is based on the novel Je ne suis pas une héroïne by French author Noelle Henry. So Little Time is unusual for its time in portraying its German characters in a mainly sympathetic manner, while the Belgian Resistance characters are depicted in an aggressive, almost gangster-type light. So soon after the war, this was not a narrative viewpoint British audiences and critics expected in a British film and there was considerable protest about the film's content. The film was made at Elstree Studios with sets designed by Edward Carrick. Filmed during 1951, it was released in March 1952.
