'Kind Hearts And Coronets'

Eddie Murphy has nothing on Alec Guinness. Fifty years before Murphy attempted to portray several different members of a family, Guinness would have eight different parts in Kind Hearts and Coronets.

He also was Obi-Wan Kenobi. So there's that.

Give the American film censors some credit in 1949. They had the word "nigger" changed to sailor. Real progressives over in the states.
