À propos de l'auteur

During the evacuation of the British Expeditionary Force from Dunkirk in 1940, A. D. Divine crossed the English Channel three times in a 35-foot boat to rescue trapped British soldiers. For his efforts, Divine was awarded the Distinguished Service Medal. Divine wrote the screenplay for the feature film Dunkirk (1958) and was the likely inspiration for central character Charles Foreman (Bernard Lee), skipper of the motorboat Vanity.
