  • Description

Dark comedy with an estranged aristocrat trying to assassinate his way back to his inheritance

This Spring we are delving into the back catalogue of the classic Ealing Studios. Best known for their post-WWII films, usually set in London with a darkly comedic tone. Every film in this season is a stone-cold classic, so grab a ticket for all of them!

About the film
When his mother eloped with an Italian opera singer, Louis Mazzini was cut off from his aristocratic family. After the family refuses to let her be buried in the family mausoleum, Louis avenges his mother's death by attempting to murder every family member - all played by Alec Guinness - who stands between himself and the family fortune. But when he finds himself torn between his longtime love and the widow of one of his victims, his plans go awry.
