Our Man in Havana
A murderously funny story, magnificently cast... marvelously made !
Directed by Carol Reed
Produced by Kingsmead Productions
A witty, absurdist spy comedy that mines humor from the collision between an ordinary man's mundane life and the ridiculous machinery of espionage.
Jim Wormold is an expatriate Englishman living in pre-revolutionary Havana with his teenage daughter Milly. He owns a vacuum cleaner shop but isn’t very successful so he accepts an offer from Hawthorne of the British Secret Service to recruit a network of agents in Cuba.
