      The Thug of Lavender Hill--a classic comedy from Ealing

      Ealing comedies are always about geeky granny, theft, and all kinds of chases, and in this Hepburn debut, the fast-paced, intense plot keeps the audience entertained enough.

      This film is not Audrey Hepburn's first film, but her fourth work in which she plays the role of the dragon. Hepburn was originally going to play one of the main female roles, but because the stage play "Golden Powder World" couldn't be separated from the scene, he had to play the role. She plays a young girl flirting with Alec Guinness in the film, and appears in no more than 30 seconds!
