It was the 1942 sequel to the 1938 A Yank at Oxford . All of it was filmed in the United States and none of it at Eton. It tells the tale of a rich, wild, cocky youth Rooney from an elite American school who has to move to England, where he attends the elite EtonCollege . ref John Walker ed. , Halliwell s Film & Video Guide , HarperCollins, 2000. ref Much of the storyline relates to the misunderstandings arising from differences between the two countries cultures, customs and language. At first these cause the boy anger and confusion and the film caricatures English manners and behavior as snobbish and stuffy. But in due course he settles down, stops being rebellious and comes to realize that, beneath the different habits and views, Yanks and Limeys have basic values in common and can get along when they have to. The propaganda intent, as U.S. troops poured into the U.K. to join World War II in 1942, was evidently to show that Americans and Britons could set aside their superficial differences and pull together in the common cause of the war effort.
