Go for a Take (1972)
Director: Harry Booth
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Varney and Rossington as two characters who find themselves pursued by a gang and seek refuge in a film studio, where Varney turns his hand to stunting and Rossington to hustling. They end up stealing a necklace and avoiding the gang in an extended chase sequence. A very weak comedy, equally uninspired whether hammering away at its twin themes of money and girls or putting Varney through yet another painful routine.Author: DP
