Légende
The Duke and Duchess of Windsor Standing in the Grounds of the Chateau de Candé, 1937. King Edward VIII '...had sacrificed his claim because of another. For Edward now, not the throne of England, but the title of Duke of Windsor'. Edward abdicated because the woman he loved - Wallis Simpson - was a divorcée. For the British establishment, a divorced woman with two living ex-husbands was politically and socially unacceptable as a prospective queen consort. She was also American. From "Time To Remember - Sense Of Values", 1937 (Reel 1); documentary film about the events of 1937, war in the Far East, build up to war in Europe. (Colorised black and white still)
