Fresh out of the Royal Navy, Anthony Kimmins entered films as an actor in 1933. Kimmins switched to writing shortly thereafter, specializing in the vehicles of such popular British comics as George Formby. He made his directorial bow with 1937's Keep Fit. After the war, Kimmins put low comedy on the back burner in favor of more ambitious projects like Mine Own Executioner (1948), Bonnie Prince Charlie (1948) and Mr. Denning Drives North (1951), producing as well as directing most of his efforts. Anthony Kimmins' more successful endeavors of the 1950s included the droll Alec Guinness comedy The Captain's Paradise and the youth-oriented Smiley films.
