Flight from Folly

Flight from Folly is a 1945 British musical comedy film directed and produced by Herbert Mason (in his last directorial credit before moving into production) for Warner Bros. and starring Pat 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.
