Charlotte Gray is a 2001 feature film directed by Gillian Armstrong, based on the novel by Sebastian Faulks. It is set in Vichy France during the World War II. The film features Cate Blanchett, Billy Crudup, Michael Gambon, Rupert Penry-Jones. The movie was filmed on location at Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val, in the French department of Tarn-et-Garonne.
The story is inspired by the exploits of a number of women trained in Britain who were dropped into France to provide a communications link to the French resistance (The most famous of whom is likely to be Nancy Wake; however, her story is very different from that of the film.)
