Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A 2016 film about World War II, adapted from the book Their Finest Hour and a Half by Lissa Evans. The story is based on a real woman who was a scriptwriter (often uncredited) for the Ministry of Information, making propaganda films to boost morale.Catrin Cole (Gemma Arterton) is a former secretary who took over some writing duties in the Ministry of Information as the men in the department got called up, attracting the notice of the film division with a newspaper cartoon she wrote. The film writers task her with researching the story of two sisters who reportedly piloted their father's boat to Dunkirk and back, in hopes of doing a film of it. Catrin discovers that the boat actually failed before it ever left English waters and the twins, Rose and Lily, are both reticent women under the thumb of an abusive father. But needing the job and not wanting to be sent back to Wales by her struggling artist husband Ellis (Jack Huston), Catrin lies in reporting the account. It nearly gets her fired when discovered, but her male colleagues and her boss argue to make it anyway. She clashes with Tom Buckley (Sam Claflin), another screenwriter who is skeptical about women's value in writing, but they slowly begin to respect and even like one another.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Meanwhile, the actor Ambrose Hilliard (Bill Nighy) argues with his agent over being cast as the drunk uncle, having made his name as the dashing hero in a series of detective films but too arrogant to accept that he's aged out of those roles. When a bombing hits close to him, he accepts the role. As filming commences, the friction between the Ministry people, the crew, and the actors gradually fades and they become close.Helen McCrory, Eddie Marsan, Rachael Stirling, Richard E. Grant, Paul Ritter, Jeremy Irons, and Jake Lacy play supporting roles. | |

Ascended Fanboy: Lundbeck is a huge fan of Hilliard and has practically memorized all of his detective films. This is a help when Hilliard has to be talked into giving the boy some coaching. | |

Their Finest / int_3dcc914f | comment |
Took a Level in Kindness: Hilliard, after Sammy's death, gradually begins to shed his prima donna attitude and develops a sense of respect and affection for his costars and the crew while filming in Devon. When Sophie is convinced that he's worth keeping as a client, she offers to get him the special accommodations he'd always demanded (separate rooms and no interaction with the crew, especially electricians for some reason), Hilliard looks ashamed to be reminded. | |

Bittersweet Ending: The film is a huge success, and seeing their alter egos onscreen inspires the real Rose and Lily to flee their father and enlist in the Mechanised Transport Corps, but Catrin is isolated and alone after Tom's death. Hilliard convinces Catrin to return to the Ministry, and when she finally sees the completed film decides that she should go on. | |

The nurse dashes it by explaining that they do their best to put bodies back together for the families and had simply "reattached" a finger, not realizing it was a previous injury. | |

Adaptational Badass: in the novel, Hilliard's moment of glory was in playing a memorable supporting character in the Inspector Charnforth movies, while in the film, he played the lead, and apparently had a long and successful run as a matinee idol. His transforming the comical character of Uncle Frank into a nuanced, and interesting one was also not present in the book. | |

Does Not Like Men: Phyl knows that she's disliked by her male colleagues and the feeling is mutual, and tells Catrin she doesn't see the point in men. She's not keen on being "put back into our boxes" when the war is over and the men come back. She's also strongly implied to be a lesbian (although she does admit that if she were "inclined" differently, she might find Lundbeck attractive). | |

White-Dwarf Starlet: Hilliard is a male version.

When his agent Sammy hands him the script for "The Nancy Starling," Hilliard initially thinks he's playing the hero. | |

Also, later in the film, when Tom dies, moments earlier Catrin and Tom had finally kissed and made up, and everything looked happy. Then the lighting rig falls on Tom. | |

Men Act, Women Are: Early on, Catrin and Tom argue about having Rose fix the engine in the film. She says that women need to see themselves able to be heroic, but he insists that women don't want to be heroes, they want to have the hero rescue them. After the accident with the lighting rig kills him and injures all the actors who would have played the engine-fixing part, Catrin quietly makes the suggestion again and Rose frees the engine in the final cut. This is present also in Catrin's life with her position as Ellis' "muse" and his resistance to her job. | |

Bad "Bad Acting": Carl Lundbeck. On the first day shooting him, he recites his lines awkwardly, stands stiff as a board, and turns to smile at the camera when he's done... telling "Johnny" that there's a sniper nearby. They resort to filming him as briefly as possible from the front and having him deliver most of his lines in voiceover later, with Lundbeck not facing the camera. | |
