Monday Night Movie: "The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare"

Darien Library presents a new weekly program: Monday Night at the Movies!

This week we are showing "The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare."

“Based upon recently declassified files of the British War Department and inspired by true events, "The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare” is an action-comedy that tells the story of the first-ever special forces organization formed during WWII by UK Prime Minister Winston Churchill and a small group of military officials including author Ian Fleming. The top-secret combat unit, composed of a motley crew of rogues and mavericks, goes on a daring mission against the Nazis using entirely unconventional and utterly “ungentlemanly” fighting techniques. Ultimately their audacious approach changed the course of the war and laid the foundation for the British SAS and modern Black Ops warfare.” – Black Bear Productions
