Director
Tom Walls
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Plunder was adapted from Ben Travers' hit Aldwych farce, with most of the original stage cast reprising their roles for maximum chaos fidelity.
This 1930 release captures the last gasp of reckless British upper-class comedy before the Depression made such indulgence feel suddenly sour.
