Inspector Hornleigh on Holiday (1939)
Country: GB
Technical: bw 87m
Director: Walter Forde
Cast: Gordon Harker, Alastair Sim, Linden Travers
Synopsis:
Hornleigh and Sergeant Bingham go off on holiday to Balmoral and almost immediately find themselves implicated in a murder investigation, which Hornleigh naturally ends up taking over himself.
Review:
Amiable Launder/Gilliat comedy thriller, hastily assembled following the success of Inspector Hornleigh (1939) and the radio series that inspired it. Sim unusually plays the dunderhead sidekick, Harker the sharp-eyed (and tongued) cockney sleuth.
