1950 collection of three vignettes from short stories written by W. Somerset Maugham & introduced on screen by the writer himself. ' The Verger' follows the fortunes of Albert Foreman (James Hayter) a man of the cloth at St Neville's whose position is terminated when it emerges that he is illiterate. Forced to change his life, he rejects reading & writing lessons & instead opens a tobacconist shop. He then becomes something of an unlikely business tycoon. In ' Mister Know All' we're introduced to Max Kelada (Nigel Patrick) the type of bigmouth everyone loves to hate. A Jeweler to trade, he goes on a cruise where his inability to keep quiet leads him into an awkward situation. When he identifies the necklace of a fellow passenger's wife as authentic & almost reveals a secret affair. His ability to finally keep his face shut earns him a newfound respect. Finally, ' Sanitorium' is set in a TB ward in the Scottish countryside. New patient Ashenden (Roland Culver) checks in & begins immediately to observe the lives of the other patients. A touching romance between resident patients Major Templeton (Michael Rennie) captivates his imagination while the incessant bickering between elderly residents Mc Leod (Finlay Currie) & Campbell (John Laurie) provides comic relief. ...
