The first of our Reminiscence Screenings at The Gate, in which we showcase classic films from years gone by.
Holland (Alec Guinness) dreams of being rich and living the good life. For 20 years he has faithfully worked as a bank transfer agent for gold bullion. One day he befriends Pendlebury (Stanley Holloway), a maker of souvenirs, and realises that, with Pendlebury's smelting equipment, the two could forge the gold into toy Eiffel Towers and smuggle it from England into France.
With a stellar cast of British talent, THE LAVENDER HILL MOB (U) stands out as one of the finest Ealing comedies.
Complimentary tea/coffee and biscuits will be available.
