Isn't Life Wonderful

Isn't Life Wonderful

Donald Wolfit heads a strong cast as an endearing Edwardian idler whose family's attempt to keep him respectably occupied unwittingly sets loose a passion for pedal power! Based on Brock Williams's novel Uncle Willie's Bicycle Shop, Isn't Life Wonderful is featured here in a brand-new transfer from original film elements, in its as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratio.

Uncle Willie, who is on more than nodding terms with the Demon Drink, has for years been the black sheep of his wife Kate's stuffy family. So when his brother-in-law becomes engaged to the daughter of a rich American banker, it is decided that Something Must De Done about Uncle Willie. The family reluctantly agree to buy him a bicycle shop in the hope that it may exert a steadying influence; in fact, it simply leads to more trouble...

First released: Monday 9th November 2015
