The Wrong Box

(1966)Directed by Bryan Forbes105 minComedy

In Victorian England, a fortune sits waiting for whichever of two elderly brothers outlives the other. Masterman Finsbury (John Mills) and Joseph Finsbury (Ralph Richardson) are the two in question, and their relatives have begun to take a keen interest in the arithmetic. Bryan Forbes fills the screen with Michael Caine, Peter Cook and Dudley Moore, all circling the money in their frock coats.
