28 & 29: Hue and Cry & The Lavender Hill Mob
Another thought re London films: 'Hue and
Cry", an Ealing comedy, 1947, set in London just after the war, and 'The
Lavender Hill Mob', early fifties I think, set a bit in Paris but mostly
London, and again a classic!
Classics indeed Angela! Here they are…

Angela is one special actress. "She's
so good it's almost impossible to compliment her", as Frederic Raphael,
the author of The Glittering Prizes, said of her performance in that
award-winning series. A similarly smitten Clive James said of her "Helena
in the Royal Shakespeare Company's All's Well That Ends Well: "You
couldn't ask to hear the words better spoken"
