Do not despair for Johnny-head-in-air
While this is ostensibly about, successively, British and American bomber crews in rural England, it is in fact a picture of middle-class life in England at the time. The main location is a genteel hotel-cum-country pub run by Miss "Toddy" Todd, brilliantly played by Rosalind John and easily the most memorable character despite the presence of John Mills, Michael Redgrave, Stanley Holloway, Joyce Carey, Renée Asherson, Basil Radford, David Tomlinson, a young Bill Owen and many more, including cameo roles for debutantes Trevor Howard and Jean Simmons, no less. It's a superb story which is especially good at exploring the culture differences ("that stuff they put on their toast is called peanut butter") between the British hosts and the American guests. The film is a classic of its kind. Not to be missed.

Says it all, really. Good choice.
Readable and well-researched biographical account with lots of good images. Karen Gill should write more books.

Brilliant account of the single most important task facing the Allies on D-Day
