    a witty & unusual film....
    Having just watched this marvellous film of wit & charm I felt compelled to comment. A witty movie full of wonderful characters.

    A gem of it's kind recommended for anyone who believes black & white means a bad movie but is prepared to be convinced.

    However, I do not see why it is classified as horror/comedy as there is no trace of horror in the whole film.
