HOBSON'S CHOICE (1954)

DAVID LEAN

Plot

Set in the 1890s this adaptation of Harold Brighouse's working class comedy sees a tyrannical bootmaker brought to heel when his plain-speaking daughter marries his down-trodden simple-minded employee and sets up a successful rival business. Keen direction and fine performances make this a great comedy.
