1948 British film

Under the Frozen Falls is a 1948 British children’s film directed by Darrell Catling and starring Harold Warrender, Jacques Brown and Ray Jackson.

The original screenplay was written by Mary Cathcart Borer as a film for children. It was later adapted as a book by J. H. Martin Cross.[1]

The film was one of the four of David Rawnsley‘s films that used his “independent frame” technique, a form of back projection.

A party of boys collect lead from a disused lead mine in Somerset, for model making. They become involved with the kidnappers of a distinguished scientist. Lost secret plans and misadventures with dynamite add a thrill to the story.
