Wiki.
My Brother Jonathan is a 1948 British drama film directed by Harold French and starring Michael Denison, Dulcie Gray, Ronald Howard and Beatrice Campbell. It is adapted from the 1930 novel My Brother Jonathan by Francis Brett Young, later turned into a television series of the same title.
The film was part of an attempt to relaunch major production by ABPC following the Second World War. It was made at Elstree Studios and Welwyn Studios, with location shooting taking place at Aston Rowant railway station in Oxfordshire. The sets were designed by the art director Douglas Daniels.
