What happens
No Resting Place is a 1951 British film directed by Paul Rotha and starring Michael Gough, Eithne Dunne and Noel Purcell. It was written by Colin Lesslie, Rotha, and Michael Orrom based on the 1948 novel of the same title by Ian Niall, and produced by Colin Lesslie Productions. It is noteworthy for its early use of location shooting and for bringing the acting style of Dublin's Abbey Theatre to the screen, as well as being the fiction feature debut of Rotha and cinematographer Wolfgang Suschitzky.
