Pastor Hall

After Hitler's ascension to power, an influx of storm troopers came to the small German village of Adorf. As indoctrination of the locals in Nazi orthodoxy began, humane Lutheran pastor Frederick Hall (Wilfred Lawson) would not be cowed... even in the face of devastating consequences for his stand. Roy Boulting's charged adaptation of the Ernst Toller play, inspired by the persecution of Martin Niemöller, also stars Nova Pilbeam, Seymour Hicks, Marius Goring, Brian Worth. 95 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English mono; Subtitles: English (SDH); featurettes; newsreel footage; bonus shorts "The Dawn Guard" (1941), "Minefield!" (1944).
