Laxdale Hall (1953)

1953 | UK | John Eldridge | ★★★★

John Eldridge's Laxdale Hall is a decidedly gentle yet hilariously irreverent Ealingesque David-vs-Goliath comedy based on Eric Linklater's 1951 novel, featuring amiable performances, attractive location photography, and memorable comic set-pieces.
