How it feels

A farce about a man who gets stranded at a country inn with a woman who is not his wife. Misunderstandings and confusion pile up as they try to conceal their situation from her husband and a nosy innkeeper.

What happens

Fast and Loose is a 1954 British comedy film directed by Gordon Parry and starring Stanley Holloway, Kay Kendall and Brian Reece. It was written by Ben Travers and A.R. Rawlinson based on the 1925 play A Cuckoo in the Nest by Travers, the first of his Aldwych farces, which had previously been adapted as a 1933 film of the same title. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
