The Magic Box
Directed by John Boulting
Robert Donat, Margaret Johnston, Maria Schell, Renée Asherson, Richard Attenborough
Now old, ill, poor, and largely forgotten, William Freise-Greene was once young and handsome William Green. He changed his name to include his first wife's for the photographic portrait work he excelled at. But he was also an inventor and his search for a way to project moving pictures became an obsession that ultimately changed the life of all those he loved.
