Great fun, not a touch of malice in The Lavender Hill Mob

Date of Review:  Oct 29, 2005
The Bottom Line: A smart funny film about a bank clerk, the would be artist, and two felons who steal a heap of gold.
Review: There are times when it's simply great to sit down and take in one of those old classic films. Watching this early crime/comedy caper, The Lavender Hill Mob proves that those filmmakers in post-war England knew exactly what they were about and...

The Meek Shall Inherit the Earth!

Date of Review:  Jul 2, 2005
The Bottom Line: A highly recommended example of Ealing Studio comedies, which rewrote the meaning of British humor.
Review: Next on the list of targets for my July invasion of British cinematic heritage is Charles Crichton's The Lavender Hill Mob, from 1951.

Historical Background: A decade before the social climate in postwar England produced the Angry Young...

Write Off: Lavender Hill Mob early crime caper comedy gem!

Date of Review:  Aug 27, 2000
Review: The Lavender Hill Mob is an Academy Award winning and very popular British film which further whet the appetite of film-goers around the world for the type of droll, clever, comedies Ealing Studios was quickly becoming famous for in the 1950's.

They don't make mobs like this anymore

Date of Review:  Dec 17, 2007
The Bottom Line: A great film which is full of nostalgia and gentle comedy
Review: The Lavender Hill mob is yet another charming black and white comedy from the British, Ealing Studios. This film happens to be my Husband's favourite from this period and this studio. For me, although it is not my favourite, the Lavender Hill Mob...

Bravo Alec !

Date of Review:  Apr 3, 2002
The Bottom Line: See Alec Guinness in a funny film. I just like it.
Review: When I was young I quickly learned that my mother was different from the rest of my friends mothers. She was Scottish and that meant that I was taken to events and films
That most Americans were unaware of. One of the was Alec Guinness?s ?The...
