On 17th May
1943, 617
squadron Lancaster bombers
successfully breached the
Mohne
and
Eder dams
in Germany s
Ruhr region, in a raid using a technologically remarkable
bouncing bomb thought up by scientist and inventor Barnes
Wallis. 617
squadron was re-named the dam busters and these
events were hailed as a triumph for British heroism, ingenuity
and scientific know-how.
The film The Dam Busters was released in
1955,
when war films were popular.
Both critics and audience applauded and it made more at the box office than
any other film of its year. With neither glamour nor stars to recommend it, this
was a remarkable achievement. Director Michael Anderson succeeded in making
a film of higher quality and deeper meaning than other war films of its time. It
celebrated the gutsy ingenuity of the Brits at War , a sense of pride, )ohn
Ramsden
argues, that has remained in British popular memory.
John Ramsden s lively and incisive book investigates the background, context
and making of The Dam Busters; gives full attention to the film itself and reviews
critical and popular reception. It proposes that the value of Britain s bombing
campaign is now difficult to assess partly because it is influenced by the cultural
impact of this film and asks how accurate a portrayal the film provides, though
accuracy was both aimed at and claimed for the finished film.
A fascinating mix of film analysis and political history, this guide to a British
institution and perhaps the finest example of a classic war film will appeal to
film and twentieth century history enthusiasts alike.
John
Ramsden
is Professor of Modern History at Queen Mary, University of
London. His publications include An Appetite for Power: A History of the
Conservative Party since
18)2.
