Scope and content

Lease of Life is a 1954 British film drama made by Ealing Studios and directed by Charles Frend. Donat received a nomination as 'Best British Actor' at the 1955 British Academy Film Awards. In common with a number of other Ealing films of the era, Lease of Life focuses on a specific English milieu – in this case a Yorkshire village and its nearby cathedral city. The film is unique in the Ealing canon in having religion as its dominant theme. Source: Wikipedia
