Review of Hobson's Choice (1954) by Kevin M. W — 30 Jan 2016
Although it pretends to be about shop owner Laughton and his difficulties with his trio of daughters, David Lean's intimate little comedy is really about one daughter's triumphant break for freedom from the shackles of a drunken male patriarchy and her taking a simple shop's assistant with her.
It's the humanity in this that counts and the actors are wonderful conveying just that.
