Genevieve
Classic British comedy about two vintage automobile enthusiasts racing from Brighton to London.
Comedy 1953 83 mins
Director: Henry Cornelius
Overview
John Gregson and Kenneth More star in this ever-popular comedy about two vintage car enthusiasts racing on the London to Brighton rally. With great comic performances, and terrific colour photography of 1950s London, Genevieve pokes fun at the struggles between the sexes in 1950s London. Look out for Kay Kendall, with her celebrated trumpet routine, who outshines her co-stars and even ‘Genevieve’, the 1904 Darracq.
