Description: 16mm Film - The Home-Made Car - GB 1963 Written and directed by: James Hill Cinematography by: Alan Hewison Music by: Ron Grainer Starring: Ronald Chudley, Alice Bowes, Anthony James, Sandra Leo, Caroline Mortimer, Frank Sieman, Arthur Ridley, Anthony Pendrell et al. A young man sets to work restoring a vintage car at the home of his aunt. The little girl who lives next door is intent on sabotaging his project at any cost, but when he wins her over with a smile, she ends up helping him to build it. He completes the project and wins the hand of the girl's older sister, who has been dating a mannerless local who tears around in a sports car. The film was shot largely in and around Farnborough, Hampshire, and Cove, Hampshire. The car was rebuilt at Blackwell Cottage, Cambridge Road West, Farnborough. The house remains, although the garage has been replaced by a detached house, now number 26. The house where the little girl lived, next door, is also still there. As well as Farnborough, parts of the filming took place at the petrol station in Bucks Horn Oak, Hampshire and Seale, Surrey. The film became a cult success when regularly broadcast as a trade test colour transmission on the run up to the start of BBC2 colour transmissions. Dialoglose, familientaugliche Kurz-Komödie der British Petroleum Company von ihrem bereits oscar-prämierten Regisseur James Hill: Ein ruhiger Mittzwanziger arbeitet - begleitet von seinem großen Bernhardiner und einem kleinen Mädchen aus der Nachbarschaft - beharrlich daran, einen reichlich abgewrackten Wagen vom Schrottplatz aufzumöbeln. Dabei zieht er auch die Aufmerksamkeit einer attraktiven Nachbarin auf sich, die jedoch zu einer Spritztour mit dem Besitzer eines flotten Sportwagens aufbricht... bis dieser aus Erstaunen über das gelungene Unterfangen der Hauptfigur einen Unfall baut.
