To mark the launch of Oy Britannia, the Mediatheque's new collection exploring Jewish life in Britain, this month's Total Recall highlights a groundbreaking tale of anti-Semitism in British high society and will be introduced by Sylvia Paskin, editor of 'When Joseph Met Molly: A Reader on Yiddish Film'.Adapted from a play by John Galsworthy (The Forsyte Saga) and starring Basil Rathbone as a wealthy Jewish businessman, Loyalties exposed an insidious vein of prejudice among the British upper classes.
