Uploaded by chrevougodie on Jan 30, 2009
A classic British comedy from 1966. For some reason it was only ever released on DVD in Spain, and now it's out of print even there as far as I can tell. So until it's released...
Cast: Michael Caine, Nanette Newman, John Mills, Ralph Richardson, Peter Cook, Dudley Moore, Wilfrid Lawson, Peter Sellers, Tony Hancock
Directed by Bryan Forbes
Based on the novel by Robert Louis Stevenson

you are wonderful - to have posted this film. I have never seen it and am very much looking forward to do so.

wow!

Stange as it may seem, you'll see echoes of both this and the book it was based on in the TV serial "Lost". At least I did.

I understand this is out on DVD-I need to get it along with my other 60's films. "The Wrong Box" is hands down one of the three best comedies of the 1960's-the other two are "Bedazzled" (which just happen to have "Box" co-stars Peter Cook and Dudley Moore) and "The President's Analyst." Very shocked as to why Nanette Newman didn't get an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress. This movie is a reason why 1966 was the defining year for film in the 60's ("Alfie", "Blow Up", "Seconds", etc.).

@HogwartsCastle All at one school - their parents each put up a share of the money. It's a Tontine ("named after Lorenzo Tonti, a Neapolitan banker", as Ralph Richardson's charactger points out several times :o))

Nanette Newman in her prime was the most beautiful woman ever !!!

Thanks for this, i haven't seen it in nearly 30 years, and finally it is available on disc in the UK- I ordered my copy today. Everything about this movie was perfect: the cast, the script, John Barry's charming score- just everything!
