Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Amiable little film about a small engineering works turning out agricultural equipment whose owner, irritated by disagreements with his workers, stalks out leaving them to get on with it. An independent's answer to the Ealing comedies, it tries (reasonably successfully) to keep its feet more firmly on the ground with locations in a real factory and plausible characters.Author: TM

A great fan of Kenneth More's work I had not heard of this little gem before purchasing a boxed set of his films.
A very enjoyable film with a terrific cast. - Report as inappropriate
