Description | The series contains items relating to Dickinson's time in Spain, and the research he was undertaking, mainly for 'ABC'. Whilst there are two sub-series, both folders have material that directly relate to each other.
[In Jan 1938 Thorold Dickinson went to Spain with fellow director Sidney Cole to research possibilities for making a film about Spain under the Spanish Republic during the threat of fascism. The result was the co-directorship of two films: 'Spanish ABC' and 'Behind the Spanish Lines' for the Progressive Film Institute, though Dickinson had more input with 'Spanish ABC'.] |
