Big Time Operators

Matt and Jean Spenser (Bill Travers and Virginia McKenna) are financially struggling newlyweds who think their luck has changed when they receive a telegraph stating Matt has inherited a movie theater in the faraway British town of Sloughborough. Planning to sell the theater and make a pile of money in the process, they pack their bags to go see their inheritance for themselves. When they get there, they discover it's a ramshackle old theater run by a bumbling staff that seems to be as ancient as the crumbling building itself. Just when the Spensers are about to chalk up their inheritance as a loss, the doddering, old janitor/doorman (Bernard Miles) comes up with a crafty plan that will make them a mint - if all goes as planned. But nothing does in this uproarious comedy about trying to make the best of a dreadful situation - and trying again… and again… (Echo Bridge Entertainment)
