kind hearts and coronets (1949)


"It is so difficult to make a neat job of killing people with whom one is not on friendly terms."
A distant relative of the D'Ascoyne family, Louis Mazzini (Dennis Price) snaps having been shunned by the family
due to his father's low status. He sets on a campaign of revenge, and achieve his goal of becoming the next Duke. All that stops him are the eight successors in his way...
A fine cast (including Joan Greenwood, Alec Guinness and Valerie Hobson), run through this gentle comedy with aplomb.
