The Card | Alec Guinness | Classic Film

[@crissy5183]

Alec Guinness is an amazing actor!! Love him in everything he's done 🥰

[@Paladin1873]

What a cast, Alec Guinness, excellent as always. I laughed near the end when they played the Colonel Bogey March which would become quite popular a few years later as the theme of another Guinness movie, The Bridge on the River Kwai. And there's Glynis Johns, who died earlier this year at the age of 100, and Petula Clark, one of the queens of pop music, who is still with us at 91. And last, but not least, Wilfrid Hyde-White, who never ceased to be entertaining in any role he was given.

Any A.G. film is a gem. ❤

[@alwiggy4707]

I have not seen this movie for decades it goes to show that you DO NOT NEED CGI just great actors to make a good movie😊😊

[@streamintrip]

You are so right on. "Real" actors make the film pop!

[@stevengrotte2987]

I REALLY DISLIKE CGI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[@stevengrotte2987]

I ALSO REALLY DISLIKE AI!!!!!!1

[@sitarnut]

Love your comment, shows marked intellect.

[@DagmarBofinger]

Hilarious! Thank you! What a joy to watch!

What a great showcase of the uniqueness of Guiness' expressiveness! Glad to "discover" it after half a century of being a fan. thanks!

[@waterbourne9282]

What a beaut, and lots of lessons for the astute. Great fun and well acted by a top notch cast all with a twinkle in their eye. Bravo.

[@peterfraser9070]

You're a poet.

[@EdelweisSusie]

Alec Guinness was one of the most under-rated actors of his generation but thank Goodness his legacy lives on through his films. ‘Kind Hearts & Coronets’ (also starring the wonderful Valerie Hobson) is one of the best films of our time - a true classic.

[@tomhaskett5161]

"My memoirs....MY MEMOIRS!" When he is released from the condemned cell!

[@JohnDowFirst]

I don't think so. He is acknowledged as one of the great actors of his generation.

[@Ddax-td7qy]

Not underrated. I think my favorite is "Captain's Paradise."

[@sitarnut]

My favorite Alec Guinness film... and the lucky stiff gets to dance with Valerie Hobson....The music is so perfect, especially the Clarinet. Happy ending too, and in a way, they all got what they wanted... Took him long enough to get the proper girl.... just the type of suspense that makes a great film.

[@juliemullen365]

Marvellous film just marvellous 😊

[@lindas.martin2806]

Fantastic! I am such a movie junkie and this one takes the cake! Thank you!

[@Ddax-td7qy]

The bonus is the suspense! You keep on the edge of your seat, is the conniving woman going to break him? Can he escape her toils? Will he recognize true love? It's a comedy cliffhanger!

[@jamesross5328]

Alec is always great

[@certuv]

What a great film

[@antoniussmink4546]

The most delightfully entertaining film I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed it all the way through .

[@jitkasuarez]

What a fantastic film. Gotta watch many times more. Love Guinness!!

[@kimmorgan985]

On a slow Sunday afternoon, I happened to scroll for a bit of wholesome entertainment and by jove! This fits the bill to bits!

[@thisissoeasy]

Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful movie! Time to go and watch "Ladykillers" again...

[@Ddax-td7qy]

I'll never respect Tom Hanks again: should have kept his hands off "Ladykillers!!!" The real, only, forever Guiness "Ladykillers!!"

[@sparker9658]

Great film thank you for uploading it.

[@anjkovo2138]

Lovely Gem👍👍

[@caseyjonessnr1200]

Excellent film that I haven’t seen before. The cast were superb. 1:26:51

[@ScratchyBaws]

Petula Clark will be 92 next month and R.I.P Glynis Johns who passed away this year of 2024 aged 100.

[@deanronson6331]

I bet nobody under 40 outside of the UK has ever heard of Petula Clark., one of the best female pop singers of the British invasion of the 60's.

[@peterbamforth6453]

Superb I'l always remember Glynis Johns as the young maiden in the classic 49th parallel Thanks for posting this timeless gem.

[@aucourant9998]

Great fun.

[@sorayajaffarian7880]

Nice Thanks for sharing 🎉

[@CAM-fq8lv]

What a treat. Such a pleasure to see him in this.

[@janpolo799]

Just brilliant 😁

[@laredoland]

What a great, fast-moving movie.

[@SalvatoreP-d9r]

This movie puts Hollywood movies today to shame........lol

[@psychodrilla]

Well stated. It's a fabulous film and a great insight to how England used to be.

[@horationelson57]

@@psychodrilla before the bleeding Labouring Party fecked it haha 😂

[@EdelweisSusie]

So true.

[@snowysnowyriver]

It's because in those days, actors could actually act.

[@johnsheldrick7523]

And the lovely Glynis Johns don't forget her. Lived to be 100 years old.

[@AB-kg6rk]

Awesome show!

[@lesallison9047]

I vaguely remember seeing this half a century ago. They really don't make them like this anymore 😔 Thank you for putting it up on utube ☺️

I was in Burslem, Stoke on Trent. Last week. I have to say, it's changed a bit..

"I thought of it." 53:00.

Should have been called, "The man with a plan" 😂

[@V12F1Demon]

I LOVE that tune!!! What is it?????

[@Super241946]

Colonel Bogey.

[@V12F1Demon]

@@Super241946 Nope am pretty sure that isn't Col Bogey...

[@MrMjolnir69]

Always wanted to see his Everyman Character who has a secret life with ...Ava Gardner!?! waiting for him to return in his tiny sailboat at the garden steps to their perfect island getaway. Any ideas?

[@paulhelman2376]

This was " The Promoter" in US release.

[@V12F1Demon]

How does one get the soundtrack???

[@KonstantinPanfilowitsch]

Times square on a rainy day Method makes the act look real Groovy score with a slight cast in the eyes By the way Who's the taxi driver

[@VASHON-ve6ki]

Is that Joan Hickson as the Landlady??

[@ThereIsOnlyTheOnePJC]

Yes.

[@JulieHeptonstall]

[@TheFutileRebellion]

Alec Guinness was the original Andy Dick.

[@KonstantinPanfilowitsch]

Smart card Alec and the Courtjester's girlfriend

[@johnkoch1888]

Machin's bookkeeping or path to success are not clear. So much of the story resembles the perils of spending money that's not yours or which you may never collect from debtors already in arrears. A funny tale, indeed, perhaps because a lot of it defies belief. If tragedy is comedy gone bad, then comedy is tragedy gone bad. The two comingle, ambiguously. Not so?

[@GlenDoer-gq1rs]

sa

[@DavidJones-tw3ov]

Lots of red pill lessons in this film.

[@leelarson107]

Well, I stayed with it to the end, and I wish I hadn't. I always liked Alec Guinness, never EVER liked Glynis Johns, and this dreary story dragged on and on and on. I kept waiting for something to get the action going, but it never came. *So I got up and went.

[@j1947m]

Good-By! 😁

[@roly220]

If you wanted action you should have watched a modern Hollywood 'movie' instead.

[@Papa-o33963]

Sounds personal

[@johnsmith-ht3sy]

No matter what movie you watch there is always somebody in the comments that dislikes it. Well we all have different tastes.

[@1funkyflyguy]

@@johnsmith-ht3sy By all account on here he seem's to be the only one! I think we can live with it!

[@1funkyflyguy]

I went into this film with very very low expectations, and by the end absolutely and completely loving this movie. What a joyous and beautiful film! 5 out of 5 stars for me!

[@johngreen2186]

What a lovely film

[@Papa-o33963]

Yes indeed

[@1funkyflyguy]

I loved it. In fact I think it is a brilliant film!
