Meticulously researched and four years in the making, author Neil Brandwood’s book provides a fascinating insight into this much-loved story; from its origin as a children’s novel to an Andrew Lloyd Webber musical.
But at its heart is the story of what it was like to be part of the enchanting film which, six decades later, continues to charm audiences the world over.
Produced by Richard Attenborough, and starring Hayley Mills, Bryan Forbes’ directorial debut marked a revolutionary new approach to film making.
Filmed on location in a remote Lancashire village, Forbes took the gamble of using complete unknowns to appear alongside one of the biggest stars on the planet and the result was cinema magic.
Now pensioners, those ‘children’ reflect on the unique experience and take you behind the scenes in this wonderfully engaging read.
The result is a humorous, moving and detailed account of the making of Whistle Down the Wind.
With contributions by such celebrity fans as Dame Judi Dench and Sir Ben Kingsley, and revelations from the personal archive of Richard Attenborough, this is an in-depth exploration of the film.
Written with the full support and blessing of Hayley Mills – who has written the foreword – and the family of Richard Attenborough and Bryan Forbes, this book will delight fans the world over.
All proceeds from this book will go to Marie Curie.
