It's a relatively ordinary one in Alfred's film list, but it's still a very good story. That mistaken speech was quite a shock, with Hannay delivering a marvelous address. And the man is splendid, and that's why he could perform the tough task.

The movie is filled with comedy ingredients. Funny in lots of places.

Plus, I love the main actress.

    Richard Hannay: They do. But they wouldn't if you were beside them.

    Crofter's Wife: [to Hannay as her husband walks in] You ought not say that.

    Crofter: What ought he not to say?
