Subtle Genius, 25 August 2007
10/10
Author: reg-255 from United Kingdom

In my opinion, despite its age, this is certainly the finest comedy movie ever to have been produced in the UK. Sellers shows us his true genius as the Union leader Fred Kite, a role that he arguably never bettered. It is a film that can be watched more than once, because the subtlety of the humour runs deep, and new pieces that escaped notice the first time can be detected in subsequent viewings. Sellers is undoubtedly the master here, but is well supported by Carmichael- and Terry Thomas as the hard pressed personnel manager comes close to stealing the top honours. A truly first class comedy that tells us more about the state of British Industry in 1959 than any serious drama from the same era.
