Some websites describe the film as a black comedy, but the temperament shown in the film is Cartoon. This is not to say that the film is naive, but its method avoids the representation of death as much as possible, and exaggerates certain factors in the human body. Furthermore, these deaths are allegorical, and the steam is like a ghost from the underworld. It was because I couldn't see these deaths that I chewed them over and over, and that moment was the moment of...

The black absurd comedy, Alec Guinness's fake teeth is the biggest highlight, the ending is sloppy, and the screenwriter may not know how to write a reasonable ending explanation. Peter Sellers was still a rookie at the time, with not many roles, and he was puffy like a...

080913 Loved the ending, a bunch of stupid thieves were thrown on the train one by one and the old lady got all the money. Very immoral, very unreliable, but very hateful. On the contrary, I was disappointed in the front. I didn't see the battle of wits and courage between these thieves and the old woman, and I didn't see the coincidence of the mechanism. Even the jokes were a little painless.

8. In the original version of the Coen Brothers remake, Alec Guinness was too wretched, and Hanks still had a gap compared to it, Sellers could not have imagined that he was so fat at the time. The little old woman is also better than the big black woman in Cohen's...

The old version of "The Damned Killer," the classic crime comedy from Ealing, had a less-than-successful remake by the Coen brothers. This was director Alexander McKendrick's last film in the UK, before he came to Hollywood to shoot "The Taste of Success." The film was selected in Time Out magazine's "100 Best British Movies of All Time" and is worth watching. Alec Guinness is really...

One-Round: I said nobody was to do her!
Louisa Wilberforce: [Begins attacking Louis, who beats him continuously over the head with a blackjack. Mrs. Wilberforce comes out of the next room] Mr. Harvey!
One-Round: I said - I said nobody was to do Mrs. Lopsided!
Louisa Wilberforce: Stop that!
[Louis hits One-Round one last time with the blackjack]
Louisa Wilberforce: What *are* you doing?
Louisa Wilberforce: [adjusting her hat] And who is "Mrs. Lopsided," may I ask? Where is Mr. Robinson?
One-Round: He's, uh, he's outside.
Louisa Wilberforce: Somebody took the key. The cello case is gone!
One-Round: It's, uh, out there too.
Louisa Wilberforce: Well... bring it in.
Louisa Wilberforce: [as One-Round heads outside] I fell asleep. Somebody took the key out of my pocket. I'm *very* angry!
Professor Marcus: As you have every right to be. It's disgraceful, Mrs. Wilberforce, shameful! Mr. Robinson will answer for it.
Louisa Wilberforce: [as One-Round brings in the cello case] I'll take that, thank you. Professor Marcus, this is another black mark against you. I shall certainly tell the police.
Professor Marcus: [as Mrs. Wilberforce goes back into the next room and shuts the door behind her] What happened?
One-Round: I thought they'd, uh, done 'er in. I thought, uh, I thought Harry done 'er.
Professor Marcus: So?
One-Round: So all right, I made a mistake!
Professor Marcus: [putting his face in his hand] Put him in the barrow...

[Harry and Marcus are distracting Mrs. Wilberforce while Louis deals with the Major on the roof]
Louisa Wilberforce: It won't do any harm to tell you now that Major Courtney has gone to the police. They'll be here shortly.
[there is a loud crash from outside]
Louisa Wilberforce: Oh! Whatever is that?
Harry: I expect something fell off the roof, mum.
Louisa Wilberforce: The roof?
Harry: Probably a... chimney-pot.
Louisa Wilberforce: A chimney-pot?
Professor Marcus: See who it is, Harry
[pushes Harry out the door]
