Blithe Spirit (1945) - ★★★★

Director: David Lean
Writer: Noel Coward (Play), David Lean, Ronald Neame, Anthony Havelock-Allan (Adapted Screenplay)
Stars: Margaret Rutherford, Rex Harrison, Constance Cummings, Kay Hammond

One of the greatest writer/director teams in cinematic history is that of Noel Coward and David Lean. Together they've created many unforgettable films, their greatest being Brief Encounter (1945). Blithe Spirit happens to be one of their very best, having both comic genius and amazing performances. This is one of Margaret Rutherford's greatest roles, which is amazing for an actress that has never given a bad performance. I laughed and laughed throughout this film.

The Happiest Days of Your Life (1950) - ★★★★½

Director: Frank Launder
Writers: John Dighton (Play), Frank Launder
Stars: Alastair Sim, Margaret Rutherford, Guy Middleton, Joyce Grenfell

The Happiest Days of Your Life is one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. Margaret Rutherford and Alastair Sim are two of the greatest comedic actors of all time. Together these two have explosive chemistry and perfect comic timing. These legendary English actors are at their best in this film, making it one of the greatest British comedies of all time.
