Watchable for early James Mason appearance

oscar-35

I was able to see this 1937 film. It is on VHS from 'GoodTimes Home Video'. This film was from the Lewis Robinson's novel 'The General Goes too Far'. This film is a sensitive story of love, friendship and betrayal. Set in Ireland and moved to British East Africa. It is story of a man's forbidden love for a married beautiful woman of a army colleague. A British Army general officer weaves a yarn of tangled lies when he covers up a murder and continues to pursue a forbidden women. The film's final scenes on trial and suicide are most memorable with a watchable with James Mason acting his role very well. Lionel Atwill stars with Lucy Mannhiem. Directed by Thorald Dickinson.
