Oh my, what a delight. Good old Ralph made outshining Larry on screen look as easy as taking your pet mouse for a walk. (Yes that's right Ralph Richardson used to take his pet mice for walks).
Plots a bit silly, but it's just good fun all round. The scenes in the kitchen between Ralph and Larry, and than Valerie and Larry was very charming indeed.
Definitely a good Sunday afternoon movie if you don't want something too serious and you're fed up of James Bond films being repeated on a loop.

Yes this film is based on a novel that is 118 years old, and filmed some 81 years ago. It provides a window into the psyche of the British mentality of this period in time.
You don't have to agree with how things used to be but just accept that was the way of things back then. You are watching a slice of cultural history. The story is good, especially the parts in the desert, and the cinematography excellent especially for its time.
The absolute star of this film is of course Sir Ralph Richardson. He is such a joy to watch on screen and knows exactly how to play his part to perfection.
