The oldest, Maggie (Brenda de Banzie), shoulders both home and business responsibilities while Hobson whiles the time away at the local pub. The younger sisters are both being courted by neighbours, but Hobson refuses to give the couples settlements. Maggie becomes tired of his oafish behaviour and decides to take matters into her hands by seeking a husband. Much to the hilarity and consternation of her father, aged spinster Maggie sets her sights on shy Will Mossop (John Mills), Hobson’s master boot-maker. Mossop is at first stunned by the suggestion, but eventually agrees to Maggie’s authoritative persuasion, and together they set up a rival boot shop. A timeless masterpiece that marked a temporary return to David Lean’s period adaptations of Dickens (Great Expectations, Oliver Twist). The film went on to win multiple awards. This film has been digitally restored to its former glory.
