The Lamp Still Burns is a 1943 British drama film directed by Maurice Elvey and starring Rosamund John, Stewart Granger and Godfrey Tearle.[1] Its plot concerns a woman architect who changes careers to become a nurse.
It was based on the 1942 novel One Pair of Feet by Monica Dickens. Like the novel, the film is a plea for better conditions in English hospitals – and, more specifically, for better treatment of England's selfless nurses.[2]
The Lamp Still Burns was produced by actor Leslie Howard, who was killed in the service of his country not long after the film was released.[3]
