Average Rating:	Passport To Pimlico [1949] starring: Stanley Holloway, Sidney Tafler, Basil Radford, Hermione Baddeley, Paul Dupuis directed by: Henry Cornelius November 13, 2006		List Price: Â£12.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£5.48 You Save: £7.51 (58%) Prices subject to change.
This film is an absolute classic and, as a wonderful example of Ealing comedy at its best, there is nothing to add to the positive - five star - reviews already posted. This DVD version, however, comes with no insert of any kind. The box gives us the title of the film and a skeletal list of the principal actors, nothing more. No subtitles, no extras, no notes, no other information. The most disappointing of all is the sound-track. Fuzzy and indistinct for much of the time, it takes one back to the flea-pit cinemas of the '50s or to a screening in the village hall. What a shame. >>More Details

Would be on most people's top 50 British films ever made list. It is way up there on entertainment value, and as a critique of 1950s life at work it is as good as a documentary. Very astute, very cleverly plotted, magnificently played, this is a film that seems to get even better with age, possibly because most of the practices satirised here are nostalgic memories now, however damaging they were. It takes you back to a day when jobs seemed safe for life, and even being sacked for incompetence was fairly rare if you belonged to one of the big unions. That the unions remained really powerful for another twenty years after this very critical film was made shows just how strong they were - Oh how things have changed! To be fair, this film attacks ... Read More: >>More Details

Average Rating:	Blithe Spirit [1945] starring: Rex Harrison, Constance Cummings, Kay Hammond, Margaret Rutherford, Hugh Wakefield directed by: David Lean May 12, 2003		List Price: Â£9.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£9.79 You Save: £0.20 ( 2%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: Â£3.21
Undoubtedly Dame Margaret Rutherford's greatest movie - looking surprisingly young, slim and energetic, and with a waistline of someone half her age! Here she plays the somewhat 'cranky' and eccentric Madame Arcati in Noel Coward's hilarious comedy. Also stars a plummy-voiced Kay Hammond whose voice can get a little irritating after awhile. The marvellous Joyce Carey who was blessed with perennial youth plays the hapless Mrs. Bradman, who is always putting her foot in it! Constance Cummings and Rex Harrison play the unfortunate married couple who are haunted by the ghost of a previous dead spouse - Harrison playing very much himself here, and with an uncannily resemblance to the character 'Higgins' that he was to play some twenty years later ...

Average Rating:	Comedy Classics - Miss Robin Hood [1952] starring: Margaret Rutherford, Richard Hearne, James Robertson Justice, Dora Bryan, Michael Medwin directed by: John Guillermin April 02, 2007		List Price: Â£9.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£8.97 You Save: £1.02 (10%) Prices subject to change.

Yes, I did buy this because it was made at Southall Film studios and it comes from a period of time when a company called Group 3, headed by John Grierson, were making these light hearted satirical features. Commentators at the time apparently said it was "too silly for words" but I suspect that was exactly how it should have seemed. Margaret Rutherford is on top form as is Richard Hearne. I laughed a lot and thought the whole film a tonic away from today's fayre. The picture and sound quality is excellent. Other films from the same studio and also on Slam Dunk DVD are "Time Gentlemen Please"; "You're Only Young Twice" and "Brandy for the Parson". >>More Details

Firstly ... I must say I enjoy old black and white films a lot so when the first set of the Long Lost Comedy Classics arrived I thought great, now to order volume 2 of the series. I should have looked at the titles in the set first though and if I had I wouldn't have made the mistake of ordering them. Upon receiving volume two, I realized two of the 4 films in Volume 2 are already in Volume 1: Miss Robin Hood and Time Gentleman Please.. So you are paying all this money for two films if you got the first set, not four... hardly a good idea. So in ending I would say unless you really want and love the two films not in set one that you save your money. Thanks. Terry So in ending I would say unless you really want and love the two ...

Average Rating:	Murder Most Foul (1964) starring: Margaret Rutherford, Ron Moody directed by: George Pollock		Used Price: Â£6.50
There are three most important reasons why you should watch this film, even if it is in black and white and slightly old in style. We would not make films like that any more even for TV, but we could also say that about Hitchcock or Charlie Chaplin. So what! Well, be positive and as I said before there are three main positive reasons for you to watch this film, or any film of that series, because it is a series. First it is Agatha Christie, and Agatha Christie is the most English woman that writes the most English detective stories with the most English "private eye" or "sleuth" no one in no Hollywood or even Bollywood could think of or imagine. Second Miss Marple is the sleuth of the film and that Miss Marple is an old fire-fox at that. She knits when on duty in ... Read More: >>More Details
