About this product

Product Information

With Great Britain in the grip of post-war rationing, a chiropodist steals a contraband pig being fattened secretly by the town's dignitaries. But his squeamishness, his wife's incontinence and his mother-in-law's senility leads to the discovery of the double-dealing.

Reviews
Variety - ...A neat comedy rooted in uniquely English eccentricities....With excellent production design, camerawork and musical score credits, it makes for an ace eccentric [picture]..., New York Times - ...High-hearted....A comedy of immense if often scatological charm...

Doesn't give much away about the film, which is about keeping a pig on the quiet.
Good nostalgia about war time life. Very funny, featuring Michael Palin and Maggie Smith.
