Crown v. Stevens is a 1936 British crime thriller film directed by Michael Powell, starring Beatrix Thomson and Patric Knowles and featuring Glennis Lorimer and Googie Withers. It was made as a "quota quickie", a film made to fulfill a legal requirement at the time that a certain percentage of films shown in British movie theatres be made in the U.K. by British personnel.
