Kind Hearts and Coronets 4K 1949

Edith d'Escoigne, who belonged to a noble family, once ran away with an Italian tenor, after which the family abandoned her. Her son Louis after the death of his mother and the refusal of relatives to bury her in the family crypt clearly decided by any means to get the title of duke due to him. True, for this he needs to “remove” out of the way all the other deeskuinov. And now the deed is done - Luis becomes a duke, marries the widow of one of his victims, but he is accused of murder and not one of the Deskuin family at all. Sentenced to death, Luis describes in detail his story ...

One of the so-called “chips” of the movie in the first place is that Sir Alec Gyness plays in it 8 roles, which in turn go to the next world. And it should be noted that Guinness is simply great.

And of course, it is impossible not to mention the excellent plot of the movie, which ironically intertwines a detective story and operatic melodrama.
