Watch Mumsy, Nanny, Sonny & Girly For Free

best movie i've ever seen.

It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.

The acting in this movie is really good.

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

The acting is superb. Every actress and actor was perfectly cast. They were all phenomenal in their acting skills. The film was exquisitely created on the beautiful grounds of this famous English estate. I thoroughly enjoyed this cult film. This is an underrated film.

With the alluring Vanessa Howard dressed as a school girl and directed by cinematography great Freddie Francis this looks like a must see. Unfortunately it's a big disappointment.The film starts off strong with a great cast of adults talking, playing and acting like little children in a secluded English mansion which makes the Biltmore look like a shack.The sexy Girly and her pretend brother Sonny spend all day playing childish games.As their playmates they pick up vagrants willing to play along with their fantasy world just to get 3 hots and a cot but when the inevitably try and leave the family "sends them to the angels." Unfortunately there is NO sex or violence in this film at all. Only one of the killings is briefly shown and there's not interesting method of murder.When a character is decapitated and the head stuffed in a boiling dinner pot it's never actually shown. Neither the killing or the head.There is also absolutely no explanation as to the origin of this madness. Who these characters are, where they come from, or why they do what they do. Or who pays for and maintains this opulent house. The "kids" have no chores and the one maid isn't enough. It would require a staff of dozens to maintain this place.So all and all, NOTHING really happens! Once you've seen the first ten minutes and been entertained by this psycho family the rest of the film is just an endless repeat of the opening scene. If you're hoping for sex and violence or even just romance, lust, passion, or any emotion for that matter this movie is completely devoid of it.It's an interesting premise that just doesn't realize itself.

I can't believe I have never heard of this until today when I accidentally came across it on YouTube. A true British 'oddity' which is a term mainly used for much more well known films such as The Wicker Man. However no mistaking, this is simply nuts. In fact, despite the fact that you spend the whole time thinking how much better this could be, you end up loving it and I don't think it will leave my mind for some time. Whilst this is far from a great film, it is the actual premise that carries so much dramatic weight. This is the Texas Chainsaw family transported to gentile post-war Britain. Tea cups, tea cakes and knitting are the British version of dead chicken heads and bones. Far more civilised and polite and yet this family are just as deranged and deadly. The decaying mansion could contain Miss Havisham and indeed Mumsy quotes Dickens from her bed - a wonderful set-up with Nanny sleeping at the foot of her bed as a satirical comment on the desperation experienced by the wealthy holding on to their servants as the class system started to disintegrate. Indeed the mansion itself probably represents what happened to so many of England's great 'homes' as the Gentry suddenly found themselves having to pay their way.Girly herself, drawn up as the ultimate hetero male fantasy, is a startling mix of Alice in Wonderland, a St Trinian pupil and an axe-wielding maniac. It is perhaps surprising that she hasn't become more iconic but perhaps as it quite spectacularly goes against the aims of the women's Lib movement that was rising at the time, she would have been considered unfashionable.Whilst Sonny is less of a character, he is still enthusiastically and athletically played by the actor and Ursula Howells is regal enough to convince. Altogether, unforgettable.

....are what I'll remember the most from this one. Vanessa Howard is nearly always dressed in very short skirts, and the director often shoots her from low angles specifically selected to emphasize her legs even more; she makes evil look tempting and sexy. She also does by far the best acting in the film - she is the only one who hits more notes than the one of amused, apathetic amorality of the others. The film has an inspired start, helped by a deceptively jaunty music score, but wears out its novelty value pretty quickly: OK, we get it, this is a seriously warped family; now what? But Girly's presence, along with some clever black humor ("I'm sorry, I didn't mean to....break my toy drummer"!), will keep you watching. ** out of 4.
