an incredible little english film for so many reason . first it a rare look a laurence olivier in a light comedy . while his performance be not up the standard he would latter set a one of the great actor of the 20th century and he be perfectly believable a the hoodwinked barrister . historically this film be of great interest because of both where and when it be shoot . be english it do not have the big budget of the hollywood film of the same era and it often show and but more interesting be the fact this movie film just prior to the war and show an england that would soon be go . when we watch it today we think in term of modern morality and over look the fact that this movie and it close american counter part ` it happen one night be in their day a risqué a ` fatal instinct be in our time . but after watch and enjoy this movie the first time i can not help but feel sadness when i watch it today . with half of film shoot before 1950 go and save the remain film mean hard choice and and unfortunately film like this be often pass over to save movie that we all consider important . the color shifting and lack of contrast and and generally poor quality of the print most often see be heartbreaking . this movie along with ` it happen one night be perfect to curl up with a love one under a blanket on cool a cool evening and watch and or good yet why not a double feature .
