Hope and Glory Hope and Glory is a film made in 1987 about Bill Rohan, a young boy living on the outskirts of London experiences the exhilaration of World War II, as seen through the eyes of director John Boorman, who also wrote and produced the autobiographical film. During this period, Bill learns about sex, death, love, hypocrisy, and the faults of adults as he prowls the ruins of bombed houses on Rosehill Avenue. His childlike father is off chasing patriotic dreams of glory from behind a military clerk's typewriter; his teenage sister runs wild; his mother can't cope; and everything in the end will eventually turn out all right.

An MG Y Type at Lake Mirror Florida, USA. On YouTube this is badly described as '1947 MG Magnette YA Four Door Sedan Grn Lake Mirror B101814' but the details do say 'A very civilized MG sedan made it here to the U.S., and this one looks perfect! It's nice to see what was current in 1947 "across the pond"!'
