Das Glück kam über Nacht (1951)

Das Glück kam über Nacht: Directed by Charles Crichton. With Alec Guinness, Stanley Holloway, Sidney James, Alfie Bass. A meek bank clerk who oversees the shipment of bullion joins with an eccentric neighbor to steal gold bars and smuggle them out of the country as miniature Eiffel Towers.

“In my opinion – this is the best comedy movie ever made. There are few movies that can still generate belly laughs two or three years after their release. This movie is still funny after more than fifty years! Plus it has some of the greatest comedy scenes ever filmed: the u0026quot;my safe is broken and I have the whole payroll in itu0026quot; scene; the two small-time thieves comparing resumes; Alec Guiness blending into the crowd of City bankers; and, of course, the famous last scene.”
