Adaptated from a H.G.Wells' novel "Kipps", this musical film has many flaws - it's overlong, pretentious and badly acted (Tommy Steele's performance is particularly embarassing). But a few excellent musical numbers (including the memorable title song) save it from being a flop. Songs:
"All In The Cause Of Economy" *
"Half A Sixpence" ***
"Money To Burn" *
"I Don't Believe A Word Of It" *
"A Proper Gentleman" *
"She's Too Far Above Me" *
"If The Rain's Got To Fall" **
"The Race Is On" *
"Flash, Bang, Wallop !" **
"I Know What I Am" *
"This Is My World" *
