Exchange Control

I know what you mean, you wouldn't really expect the stars of 'Destry Rides Again' to turn up in a movie set in Hants
One reason Hollywood made movies in the UK with major US stars (remember Tyrone Power, Charles Laughton Ronnie Reagan, Patricia Neal, John Wayne etc?) was that they couldn't get their profits out of the country because of Exchange Control regulations
