The oldest one yet I think. #TheLavenderHillMob from 1951, you see much of post war London under reconstruction at various points, but here's the view looking north east up Queen Victoria Street, near St Paul's Cathedral in 1951, and later in 2021.

🥰 #TheLavenderHillMob also features, albeit VERY briefly, the delightful Audrey Hepburn in one of her earliest film roles. 📽️🎞️
Black and white frame from the British Ealing Studios' heist comedy 'The Lavender Hill Mob' (1951). Close-up of a smiling young woman (Audrey Hepburn as Chiquita) with short hair wearing a white dress and black gloves (on the left) facing a seated spectacled middle-aged man (Alec Guinness as Henry Holland) wearing a light suit and a tie in a crowded cafe with a band playing in the background.

#TheLavenderHillMob is hardly the most elaborate heist film out there but enjoyable little Ealing Studios' (crime) comedy nonetheless. As I discovered, directed by Charles Crichton who would go onto directing nearly four decades later one of my all-time favourite comedies, A Fish Called Wanda. 📽️🎞️
Poster for the British Ealing Studios' heist comedy 'The Lavender Hill Mob' (1951). Directed by Charles Crichton. Starring Alec Guinness, Stanley Holloway, Sid James and Alfie Bass. On the poster an illustration of two middle-aged men hugging their faces cheek to cheek. On the left a spectacled brown haired man (Alec Guinness as Henry Holland) and on the right a brown haired man (Stanley Holloway as Alfred Pendlebury) wearing a black hat. The faces of the two men are surrounded by black and white caricatures of characters and events from the film. On the top left corner of the poster on a yellow background the tagline "Your biggest laugh in years!" in red. Black and white frame from the British Ealing Studios' heist comedy 'The Lavender Hill Mob' (1951). Close-up of four men sitting around a table with a map. On the left side of the table a middle-aged man (Stanley Holloway as Alfred Pendlebury) wearing a hat, sitting behind the table facing the camera in the middle of the frame a spectacled middle-aged man (Alec Guinness as Henry Holland) wearing a suit and a tie and holding a pen in his right hand, and on the right sitting on the back of the chair a man (Sid James as Lackery Wood) wearing a coat and a hat and another younger man (Alfie Bass as Shorty Fisher) wearing a flat cap and holding a lit cigarette in his right hand. Black and white frame from the British Ealing Studios' heist comedy 'The Lavender Hill Mob' (1951). Two men, Alfie Bass as Shorty Fisher on the left and Sid James as Lackery Wood, pouring smelt gold into a mould with two other middle-aged men, Stanley Holloway as Alfred Pendlebury on the left and Alec Guinness as Henry Holland on the right, stand in the background watching.
