Passport to Pimlico (1949 Henry Cornelius)

It was 35ºC. Hermione Baddeley great as feisty dress shop owner, Betty Warren as the common sense one ("Well why don't you go and turn it on again?") Charlie Hawtrey has one of his most substantial performances (he's actually billed higher than Margaret Rutherford). The British like supporting the underdog, even though it's (sort of) foreign.

"Genuine stolen nylons."
