Entente cordiale (1939)
De film belicht de gebeurtenissen tussen de Fashoda-crisis in 1898 en de ondertekening van de Entente Cordiale in 1904, waarmee een alliantie tussen Groot-Brittannië en Frankrijk werd gecreëerd en een einde kwam aan hun historische rivaliteit. De film was gebaseerd op het boek King Edward VII and His Times van André Maurois. De film werd gemaakt met het oog op de propagandawaarde ervan, na het Verdrag van München van september 1938 en in afwachting van het uitbreken van de Tweede Wereldoorlog, die de banden tussen Groot-Brittannië en Frankrijk op de proef zou stellen in een conflict met nazi-Duitsland.
