overview
What is Private's Progress about?
The film that is respectfully dedicated to all those who got away with it !. Stanley Windrush has to interrupt his university education when he is called up towards the end of the war. He quickly proves himself not to be officer material, but befriends wily Private Percival Cox who knows exactly how all the scams work in the confused world of the British Army. And Stanley's brigadier War Office uncle seems to be up to something more than a bit shady too - and they are both soon working for him, behind the enemy lines. It blends comedy, war elements. The film reflects a distinct United Kingdom style and perspective. The story is brought to life by director John Boulting. With a runtime of 1h 37m, it offers a comfortable feature-length experience.
