Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaBilly Wright, the famous Wolverhampton Wanderers and England football player, is described as "Mr Beverley".

Featured review
Obscure But Relevant
This early Michael Winner film is not so much a movie, more a collage of light and not so time relevant musical comedy interludes and sketches. Most of the cameos are from people I don't recognise or have never heard of given I was born 18 years after the film's release date, but the plethora of names appearing as themselves would probably be more relevant to someone a generation above me, or to someone viewing this at its time of release. It's a curious film given its a musical of sorts, without a clear plot, but different, and arguably unique for its time, however never that entertaining. Fans of Peter Sellers may want to watch his short contribution, which is not more than a couple of minutes long, but it does offer something of relevance to a modern audience.
