The Yellow Rolls-Royce is a 1964 dramatic composite film written by Terence Rattigan, produced by Anatole de Grunwald and directed by Anthony Asquith, the trio responsible for The V.I.P.s (1963).
Apparently adapting an idea from Seven Journeys, a 1947 German drama by Helmut Käutner that had its U.S. premiere in March 1951, The Yellow Rolls-Royce uses a yellow 1930 Rolls-Royce Phantom II to frame the story of three very different owners: an English aristocrat, a Chicago gangster and a wealthy American widow. It is set in the years up to and including the start of World War II.
Prompted by the production team's success with The V.I.P.s, the film boasts a similar all-star cast, including Rex Harrison, Ingrid Bergman, Shirley MacLaine, Omar Sharif, George C. Scott, Art Carney, Alain Delon and Jeanne Moreau.
The soundtrack song "Forget Domani" won Best Original Song at the 23rd Golden Globe Awards.
On a flat bed lorry driven in the streets of London, England, a motor car is under a gray cover with the initials RR. The Rolls Royce is first purchased by Lord Charles, the Marquess of Frinton (Rex Harrison) as a 10th wedding anniversary present for his French wife, Eloise (Jeanne Moreau).
