The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp

An unforgettable story of forty gallant years.

General Candy, overseeing an English squad in 1943, is a veteran leader who lacks his men's respect and seems out of touch with what the war demands. The story then moves back to his early career in the Boer War and World War I, showing a dashing young officer whose life was shaped by three different women and by an enduring friendship with a German soldier.
