A 1955 Black and White Alec Guinness/Ealing Studios comedy, on Filmfest, starting on 2/19.

"A meek clerk, his buddy and crooks melt hijacked Bank of England gold into Eiffel Tower souvenirs".

"The Man in the White Suit" is also aired now and then, what a treat, it looked beautiful, I expect this will be the same.

Nowadays Hollywood would rewrite the ending to let the Mob get away with it, but in the 50's criminals always had to pay.

Alec Guinness is always a delight.
