Many consider the original to be perfect, but “Ryan’s Daughter” star Sarah Miles has set out to pen a sequel to the classic Irish film. Miles’ agent announced that the English actress, who was nominated for an Oscar for her role as the unforgettable Rosy Ryan in the award-winning film, is currently conducting research in Ireland for the sequel. “She is writing a script and there is a producer for a film, but it's very early days,” her agent said.

West London’s Ealing Studios, the oldest studio in the UK, was a prolific producer of top-quality British filmmaking from around 1930 until the BBC purchased it in 1955. They had traded as an alternative on this side of the pond to the big studios in the Us, churning out a consistent and relatively successful line of pictures before the golden period began at the close of the 1940s. After producing the well-received Nicholas Nickelby and Scott of the Antarctic (the latter with the great John Mills), the studio shifted focus to razor-sharp caper comedies, often less laugh-out-loud funny that just pitch perfect in filmmaking and writing.
