"We're No Angels"

We watched one of our favorite old movies last night on TCM. "We're No Angels"  
(1955) stars Humphrey Bogart, Peter Ustinov, and Aldo Ray. Netflix summarizes it:

Humphrey Bogart, Aldo Ray and Peter Ustinov play three escaped inmates who hatch a plan to steal from a shopkeeper on Christmas. But their plans change when they find themselves actually growing to like their target and his family. Besides, the luckless merchant is apparently about to lose his shirt, as his business is unraveling. So, instead of robbing him, the convicts decide to help him, a mission that proves wildly complicated.

If you’ve not seen this delightful movie, give it a try sometime.

I don't get TCM, and I'm unwilling to pay for the upgrade for the occasional good movie. This one sounds cute.

Was Peter Ustinov ever that young?

Harriet, the question is "were WE ever that young???"

You'd love this one. Your library might have a copy.
