The spectacle of the London to Brighton Commemorative Run provides the background for this delightful comedy in which friendly rivalry (both automotive and married) between two couples develops into a no-holds-barred race! Four charming lead performances, a sharp and amusing script, Larry Adler's Oscar nominated harmonica theme and the vintage cars themselves fortuitously combined to turn Genevieve into an unexpected smash. One of Britain's most affectionately remembered films, it won the BAFTA for Best British Film and made stars of Kenneth More and Kay Kendall.
