Based on the classic stage play by J.B. Priestley, An Inspector Calls stars the incomparable Alastair Sim as the Inspector.

The Birling family are rich, pampered and complacent. It is 1912, and the shadow of the impending war has yet to fall across their lives. As they sit down to dinner one night, celebrating the engagement of the eldest child, Sheila (Eileen Moore), to prosperous business man Gerald (Brian Worth), a knock at the door announces the arrival of a visitor who will change their lives forever.
