Letter from RD to his parents, relating to: money he is sending them, and his concern about their housing conditions; concern that his father is harbouring a grudge against him [possibly in relation to the bungalow scheme proposed by Gaumont British; see DON/88]; his present holiday with Ella and the children before filming [Knight without armour]; and his recent introduction to Marlene Dietrich, with whom he believes he can work well.
Dated at: [Broadstairs, Kent]. Holograph.
