Kind Hearts and Coronets (1949 Robert Hamer & co-scr)

He wrote it with John Dighton; source was novel by Roy Horniman.

Apart from The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie, I'm not sure there is a drier film. Probably my favourite Dennis Price / Joan Greenwood / Hamer / Ealing film.

"Two days later I made the tedious journey to Bayswater. It was typical of Lionel to live on the wrong side of the park."

"We do seem to be a very short-lived family." And "All your cousins seem to get killed."

Locations this way.
