Anthony Martin Kimmins (born 10 November 1901 – 19 May 1964) was an English director, playwright, screenwriter, producer and actor. Kimmins was born in Harrow, London on 10 November 1901, the son of the social activists Charles William Kimmins and Grace Kimmins. He served in the Royal Navy, and upon leaving the navy he became an actor. His first directorial assignment was ''Keep Fit''. Kimmins wrote and directed many of George Formby's best comedies. During World War II he returned to the Navy, running the Navy newspaper in Sydney during the Pacific war. After the war he produced an eclectic mix of films, such as the psychological thriller ''Mine Own Executioner'' (1947), ''Bonnie Prince Charlie'' (1948) and ''Mr. Denning Drives North'' (1951). In the 1950s Kimmin's work included the Sir Alec Guinness comedy ''The Captain's Paradise'' and the children's ''Smiley'' series of films. His final film harked back to his early days – it was ''The Amorous Prawn'' (1962). He died in 1964, aged 62, at Hurstpierpoint, West Sussex, England. ==Filmography== * ''Two Wives for Henry'' (1933) * ''The Golden Cage'' (1933) * ''Night Club Queen'' (1934) * ''White Ensign'' (1934) * ''Bypass to Happiness'' (1934) * ''Diplomatic Lover'' (1934) * ''Midshipman Easy'' (1935) * ''Once in a New Moon'' (1935) * ''While Parents Sleep'' (1935) * ''All at Sea'' (1935) * ''His Majesty and Co.''
