A Kid for Two Farthings
Carol Reed and Wolf Mankowitz give us a dense, noisy tale of life on a busy London market
street, infused with a strange kind of melancholy whimsy, courtesy of a young boy who believes
in magic even though his pets keep dying. With Celia Johnson, Diana Dors and David Kossoff. The
whole thing may be a parable for the holocaust.
