Green Man, The (1956)

Work has been going with a bang for freelance assassin Hawkins but a job in England just after the war is a different matter. His apparently easy target, a pompous government minister, is off for some hanky-panky at the Green Man on the south coast, where Hawkins is planning to retire him for good. But before he can get on with this the hit-man has a procession of unwanted visitors at home to dispose of – one way or another.

THE GREEN MAN is one of the funniest black comedies ever made.

Alastair Sim, George Cole, Terry-Thomas

1956, B&W, 80 minutes
