Dreaming is a 1944 British comedy film directed by John Baxter and starring Bud Flanagan, Chesney Allen and Hazel Court.[1] Its plot concerns a soldier who is knocked unconscious during a train journey and has a series of bizarre dreams.
In 1944, Decca Records released a recording of Flanagan and Allen singing Dreaming, the title song from the film.[2]
The film's sets were designed by Duncan Sutherland.
When British soldier Bud (Bud Flanagan) is hit on the head, the concussion causes a series of dreams whilst on the hospital operating table. In these he is fleeing hostile tribes in Africa, is a jockey winning a race at Ascot, turns up in Nazi Germany and is opening a wartime services canteen.
Allmovie wrote, "There's not much in the way of plot, but Flanagan & Allen seldom needed plots, merely premises."[3]
