Will Hay Double Feature Volume 1: Boys Will Be Boys / Where There's a Will (DVD)

From the Golden Age of Comedy, Will Hay is one of the greatest British comedians of all time. A major star of the 1930's, Hay relishes playing pompous, incompetent authority figures. His misanthropic antics have inspired many great funny men and never fail to raise a full-hearty laugh. BOYS WILL BE BOYS: Narkover' School is perhaps more famous for it's forgers than it's academic prowess. Dr. Alec Smart gets the job as headmaster by enlisting the help of Brown, an ex-pupil with a good record in forgery! In return Dr. Smart is forced to employ Brown so he can prepare to steal a priceless necklace from rich founder, Lady Dorking. Inevitably all does not go according to plan and results in hilarity and confusion! (78 mins, B&W, 1935, NR, 1.37:1/4x3) WHERE THERE'S A WILL: Benjamin Stubbins is a penniless lawyer who has spent most of his money on drink. When he accidentally interrupts a robbery at work, he becomes the target of a gang of thieves who determine that although he is impoverished, his relatives aren't. They follow him to a party where they intend to commit a robbery. It is up to Benjamin, a failure at everything else, to save the day. (80 mins, B&W, 1936, NR, 1.37:1/4x3)
