At the Movies: ‘Their Finest' stylishly blends wit, romance in WWII
By LINDSEY BAHR

“Their Finest “ is a movie about making a movie, specifically a glossy propaganda film meant to bolster morale in Britain in the darkest days of the Second World War. It is also very much a movie-movie. Good-looking, finely acted, and well-told, director Lone Scherfig (”An Education”) has made a charming, witty and romantic gem. It is “Shakespeare in Love” in World War II.
