Alec Guinness gets to die eight times, playing a line of successors to a dukedom, in the Ealing black comedy Kind Hearts and Coronets. Louis Mazzini (Dennis Price) is ninth in line to inherit the dukedom from the aristocratic D'Ascoyne family. Louis vows to kill all eight people who stand between him and the duke's title. Aside from two cases of natural causes, Louis works through the list, eliminating rivals (all played by Guinness). Along the way he romances Sibella (Joan Greenwood), a childhood friend who ends up marrying a dullard, and Edith (Valerie Hobson), the beautiful widow of one of his victims with whom he plans to share his title. But just when Louis is ready to assume the D'Ascoyne mantle, a bizarre irony strikes. Paul Brenner, Rovi

This is not a defect, nor should you presume the item to be damaged.

For a decade Ealing Studios produced the finest comedy films in the world. Fifty years on they are almost all regarded as classics, but there is none finer than this! There is no easy answer to the question "How can a film which features eight murders be so brilliantly funny?" Alec Guiness, yes, he of "Bridge over the River Kwai", portrays no less than eight characters, all of whom come to sticky ends, but the true comic genious is Dennis Price. His langorous, precisely enunciated and utterly stylish portrayal of an aspiring english aristocrat, pursuing then renouncing the delicious Joan Greenwood almost steals the show. There are hardly any special effects, only superb acting and a plot so labryinthine that it keeps you in suspense, and stitches, until, quite literally, the very last moment. One that is, without question, unmissable. Ask Robert Osborne if you don't believe me!
