Walter Forde stars and co-directs this British comedy. It's not bad but also very low energy and not especially funny...so you'll have to decide whether to see it or not.

Early in the story, a famous actress has her purse stolen by Walter. Later, he hears a woman screaming in distress and runs to her aid...not realizing it's the woman he robbed AND she's acting in a movie. She quickly realizes he's the thief but instead of turning him in to the police, she feels sorry for him and offers him a job in the film. What comes next?

The film is, despite being a comedy, very low energy...which doesn't help it much. It also has only a few laughs and really could have been better. This, combined with a rather nasty insult against Greeks in the opening title card make it a movie that just isn't especially good.
