    Probably the best of those is 'Malta Story' with Alec Guinness.

    Shot in Malta in 1952, when the island was still seriously bomb damaged... you can see that in the film... plus uses real Spitfires as standins when newsreel footage is not available, although they are clipped wing Spit XXI's.

    Lots of real newsreel footage from the actual battle... including rare footage of Bristol Beaufort torpedo bombers attacking Italian convoys. Also shots of Italian bombers flying overhead attacking British convoys.

    Typical 'Stiff upper lip' British war film but generally worth watching for the ambiance and images of the island and the great newsreel footage.
