Poirier, the chef: ...cover with white wine, put it into the oven, and voilà, it's cooked.
Denning: I say, that's very neat isn't it? But do you really think cod's worth all that trouble?
Poirier, the chef: Trouble?
Denning: Yes, you see at home we just lower the jolly old creature into the boiling water, let it boil, serve it up with greens and chips.
Poirier, the chef: But you get no sauce...?
Denning: Oh good Lord yes - there's always a bottle of sauce around somewhere.

Featured review
A Very Much Missed Slice of Civilized Life
I cannot praise this film enough: screenplay, acting, direction and cinematography absolutely first class. The sophistication and delicacy of acting, especially by Jean Kent is something that virtually has gone extinct in the modern era of crude, vicious
gun-toting, ham-fisted brutes that populate American cinema. There is one memorable scene after another. The first scene between Derrick DeMorney and Rona Anderson can only be described as exquisite. And the comic touches! Eves Chanteau, David Tomlinson, Finlay Currie, Hugh Burden are a bow! Just a delight.
