Sobre este filme

Holland (Alec Guinness) is a shy retiring man who works as a bank transfer agent for the delivery of gold bullion. He befriends Pendlebury (Stanley Holloway) a maker of souvenirs and remarks that, with Pendlebury's smelting equipment, it might be possible to forge the bank's gold into harmless-looking toy Eiffel Towers in order to smuggle it into France. Soon after, they gain the services of professional criminals Lackery (Sid James) and Shorty (Alfie Bass). The four concoct what they believe will to be the perfect crime, which turns out to be anything but. An enduring classic from director Charles Crichton, THE LAVENDER HILL MOB features an early screen appearance from Audrey Hepburn and was included on the British Film Institute's list of the 100 Best British Films of the 20th Century.

Wonderful classic British movie, love it. But I really wish Google would include the year it was made, they do this with a lot of films & it's annoying having to search for it. That's my only complaint!

I loved this film! It is so well written and funny with an excellent cast! I would recommend it to anyone. :-)
