VHS : Agatha Christie's Murder Most Foul [1964]

Agatha Christie's Murder Most Foul [1964]


starring: Margaret Rutherford, Ron Moody, Charles 'Bud' Tingwell, Andrew Cruickshank, Megs Jenkins
directed by: George Pollock
August 21, 2000


I remember watching this with my parents and brothers when telly was all in black and white. Margaret Rutherford was a great favourite. The more serious her expression, the funnier. What a treat to find this film is now available on VHS. DVD would be preferable but really, I mustn't grumble because I'm just so delighted to have found it. I've also enjoyed Joan Hickson's Miss Marple -- well, Joan Hickson is another great favourite, but she does a completely different Miss Marple. You'd never believe it was the same character if you didn't know they both played an amateur lady sleuth called Jane Marple, created by Agatha Christie.

This is a three-murder mystery and our heroine is chasing down the trail of clues like a terrier ... Read More:

VHS : School For Scoundrels [1960]

School For Scoundrels [1960]


starring: Ian Carmichael, Terry-Thomas, Alastair Sim, Janette Scott, Dennis Price
directed by: Cyril Frankel, Hal E. Chester, Robert Hamer
July 06, 1998


"Oh, hard cheese, old chap!"

School for Scoundrels, that cheery, malicious comedy of one-upmanship, was based on Stephen Potter's classic of underhanded winning, Gamesmanship - Or How To Win Without Really Cheating, and its follow-up, Lifemanship. (Potter wrote several others, too.) What is lifemanship? "Well, gentlemen," says the avuncular head of school played by Alastair Sim to a new class, "lifemanship is the science of being one up on your opponents at all times. It's the art of making him feel that somewhere, some how, he's become less that you. He who is not one up, is one down."

Getting ready to sign up for the courses is Henry Palfrey (Ian Carmichael), so nice, so pleasant, so helpful that he usually finds himself either ... Read More:

Private's Progress [1956]


starring: Richard Attenborough, Ronald Adam, Dennis Price, Henry B. Longhurst, Terry-Thomas
directed by: John Boulting
July 06, 1998


Stanley Windrush (Ian Carmichael) is called up during WW2 and sent for training under the permanently exasperated Sergeant played by William Hartnell. Failing officer training he is sent to a holding camp presided over by Terry-Thomas, with his perpetual cry of "You're a shower, an absolute shower". Here he encounters the crafty Private Cox (Richard Attenborough) who explains to him how it is possible to avoid active service more or less indefinitely, only, as he explains "the trouble is you're educated, and that sort of limits, you, doesn't it?". Cox and his mates are up to all sorts of nefarious activities, and Windrush finds himself in all kinds of trouble. Meanwhile his dodgy Uncle Bertie (Dennis Price) is up to some shady dealings in art.

Finally Windrush's ... Read More:

VHS : What A Carve Up [1961]

What A Carve Up [1961]


starring: Donald Pleasence, Kenneth Connor, Sid James, Shirley Eaton, Dennis Price
directed by: Pat Jackson
July 21, 1997


Was I unlucky or did this particular version of this film carry a muffled sound quality. I originally copied this from TV and the sound was excellent, but always preferring to get the pucker video, I later saw this version, and was dismayed at the result. Needless to say I got rid of it, kept my TV copy, and have been reluctant to try and get another copy for the reason I have explained. Can anyone else throw some light on this? Having said all that, it really is a very good film of it's type and I agree very much with what my fellow reviewers have to say about it
