✅ IT'S A GREAT LIFE, IF YOU DON'T WEAKEN. It's a story of how the efforts of Baines, the butler, to keep his girlfriend a secret, go horribly wrong when his wife falls down the grand staircase and dies. Ralph Richardson's performance is perfectly modulated, and the small boy through whose eyes the story is told, Bobby Henrey, is far less irritating than most child actors. There's a great supporting cast all around. Some may have trouble understanding the euphemisms in use in those days, i.e., when the police talk about "intimacy," they mean having sex. With that in mind, check it out!
