(Comedy)

So swift is the action, so involved the situations, so rib tickling the plot in this London hit that at its finish audiences are left as exhausted from laughter as though they had run a foot race. Galloping in and out of the four doors of an English vicarage are an American actor and actress (he is now stationed with the air force in England), a cockney maid who has seen too many American movies, an old maid who "touches alcohol for the first time in her life," four men in clergyman suits presenting the problem of which is which, for disguised as one is an escaped prisoner, and a sedate Bishop aghast at all these goings on and the trumped up stories they tell him.

"The glory of great farce...Philip King's "See How They Run" is arguably the greatest of the much-maligned genre." (Variety)

"As comic relief for all the family, and for vicars both frocked and unfrocked, See How They Run could scarcely be trumped."(The Independent)
