DVD: Half a Sixpence   Classic Film > 1967   DVDs   Half a Sixpence    Discs    DVD Release Date       Half a Sixpence   1   April 6, 2004   check prices     When orphaned shop clerk Arthur Kipps inherits a fortune, his future seems assured--but money doesn't buy happiness, as the gawky lad learns when he mixes with the swells. The splashy musical Half a Sixpence was adapted from H.G. Wells's novel, Kipps, and it saw considerable success as a stage vehicle for the exuberant Tommy Steele. The film version gets caught in that mid-1960s mode of the lumbering super-production (the kind that helped kill the movie musical). Lavishly mounted by old pro director George Sidney, and boasting some echt-sixties photography by the great Geoffrey Unsworth, Half a Sixpence offers its share of eye candy. The blowhard presence of Cyril Ritchard and the spectacular dancing of Grover Dale help. Then there's Tommy Steele, whose stage-scaled performance is all teeth and hair; he attacks the razzmatazz numbers with ferocity--maybe more ferocity than charm. Songs by David Heneker. --Robert Horton   More...       See also: Classic Film on DVD - 1930-1969 1930   1931   1932   1933   1934   1935   1936   1937   1938   1939 1940   1941   1942   1943   1944   1945   1946   1947   1948   1949 1950   1951   1952   1953   1954   1955   1956   1957   1958   1959 1960   1961   1962   1963   1964   1965   1966   1967   1968   1969   Top Films on DVD - Oscar® Winners and Nominees A   B   C   D   E   F   G   H   I   J   K   L   M   N   O   P   Q   R   S   T   U   V   W   X   Y   Z   NowChannel TV Shows on DVD Classic TV   Entire Series on DVD Classic Film   Oscar® Winners More Genres of DVD   Oscar® is a registered trademark of Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
