Lord of the Manor (1933)

It is quite a leap from playing a supporting role in this quota quickie to playing opposite Claudette Colbert in Cleopatra the following year.However that's what happened to Henry Wilcoxon who plays Jim Bridge in this film. Sir Henry is a chimeric Lord of the manor who is always having an argument. The government is overthrown by a coup and a committee is set up to rule in its place.They decree that the unemployed are entitled to be placed where there are rooms for them.So 3 are sent to stay with Sir Henry.Love is in the air defying class convention,and of course everything turns out for the best.This has some amusing moments.
