Kind Hearts and Coronets (1949)
Don’t let the odd title scare you this is a must-see rarely shown classic! Besides showcasing the many talents of (now Sir) Alec Guinness this is a very funny quirky film about a man (played by Dennis Price) who systematically eliminates all the heirs in "his" wealthy family that are between him and the coveted title of Duke. Guinness plays each of the eight family members including a woman. One scene has him playing six of the characters at once! A black comedy not to be missed!
