          Amiable comedy

          This is a fairly brief quota quickie.Derrick De Marney agrees to pose as a millionaire to take the heat off the real Mr Bush.Passes the time.

          You Can't Take it With You

          A quickie British copy set in 1938 of a thirties screwball comedy crossed with 'The Prince and the Pauper' in which a young and debonair Derrick de Marney plays the sort of role in which Charles Coburn later cornered the market. Which makes Kay Walsh Jean Arthur. Ten years later she would play a similar role in more bittersweet circumstances in 'Last Holiday'.
