"Doctor in the House" is the film credited with raising Dirk Bogarde to star status in cinema. Although he had been around and in films for several years, this film clearly catapulted his career. Bogarde is very good as Simon Sparrow. But with a supporting cast that includes several more prominent actors of the day, and a plot befitting their talents, how could this film go wrong.
It's a very good comedy, but not up there with the great ones. But anyone who enjoys British humor and comedies, will surely enjoy the many roles played here, in addition to Bogarde. Kenneth More Kay Kendall and James Robertson Justice lead a large cast of UK actors of the time.
