Much fun to be had from this fast paced if unoriginal 50s fare
15 July 2018
A wealth of familiar faces comprise the talent in this better than average British B movie comedy. Many of whom went on to later (and wider) TV stardom. The plot is standard comedy bordering on grace fate, surrounding a Will and the usual machinations around money and morals ensues. The wonderful (and sadly neglected) Kathleen Harrison brings a warm heart to the centre of it, and likewise Leslie Dwyer brings a degree of charm that makes us root for these two unlikely romantic suitors amidst the skullduggery. Grey power at the box office isn't new! The film crackles along at a great pace. The financial ramifications of various legal positions are hard to follow, but it doesn't matter to the enjoyment of the piece. Warm chuckles all round.
