The Lavender Hill Mob
April 12th 2011 18:29
(1951) Alec Guinness, Stanley Holloway, Sid James, Alfie Bass. Dir: Charles Crichton.
A meek bullion security supervisor comes up with a novel way to rob his own bank. Delightful comedy caper; it has a warm gentle quality, but maintains a good pace. Guinness and Holloway lead a strong cast as delightfully unlikely criminals – you really want them to get away with it.
