Review of Your Past Is Showing

I have a special fondness for British comedies, and I was drawn to this one by the presence of Terry-Thomas, Peter Sellers and Dennis Price. Any movie with a cast like that, plus an assortment of other fine British character actors, can't be all bad, and indeed this isn't. The script is full of clever witticisms and the performances are certainly fine (if you can't quite place where you've seen "Miss Wright" before, she was Jill Masterson in Goldfinger). However the comic premise is just a tad far-fetched and at the end, the movie descends into nonsense. But it's worth watching just for the great actors doing their stuff.
