Extract

Early in 1945 a rumour was spreading round that a film was to be made of Scott's Last Expedition, and the reaction among the “survivors”—as the press chooses to call us—was interesting. It was, almost universally, one of dismay and even antagonism. The arguments against it were varied. The story was already sufficiently told; it was out-of-date; to film it would be an invasion of privacy, and so on and so forth.
