A breezy affair
1 August 2021
Warning: Spoilers
Another decent Rank comedy with Terry-Thomas headling an ensemble cast. Peter Sellers is pretty good here with his trademark accent and caricature schtick and it makes me wonder if Mike Myers based his whole career on him. The plot seems to be inspired by the likes of KIND HEARTS AND CORONETS (the presence of Dennis Price pushing the similarities home) and THE LADYKILLERS, albeit with a lighter, more scheming tone. Plenty of good supporting performances, particularly from Peggy Mount and Kenneth Griffith, make this a breezy affair.
