I've searched for years for one of these movies, well, to my surprise I got all four in one package. They are wounderfully funny,great plots,a beginning, a middle, and a end, and great British humor. could not be happier April 17, 2008

Brit's humor

The first one we've watched "Whiskey Galore" is a classic and one we've thought of and hoped to see once more for years. It was wonderful to see the cast and the action and the story but our one regret is that it does not have subtitles in English. The sound track is difficult to follow with the accents and it would have been perfect if there were subtitles to read along with the action. It is fun to see all these old classics and it brings back memories but the sound made it difficult. March 3, 2008

horrible sound transfers--needs subtitles

can't remember any of these being all that good in sound quality. I'm currently turning off "Passport to Pimlico" due to the horrible sound transfer. No subtitles available either. February 19, 2008

ealing studios comedy

guess this should be a SUPERB collection
but unluckily for non english speakers
it is very difficult to understand all the
dialogues as it has
NO SUBTITLES (could be English or Spenish ones)

Has noted lot of wonderful collections with
the same problem February 16, 2008

Delightful collection

It's a nice, smooth, salubrious, collection of gentle comedies from Ealing. I'd put The Titfield Thunderbolt more or less at the bottom of the list, but they're all amusing and often a little wistful. "Whiskey Galore" is an understated treasure. All are very British, don't you know. November 21, 2007
