You would need a "multi-region" or "region-free" PAL compatible DVD player or computer.] Norman Wisdom became an instant movie star with the release of Trouble in Store in 1953. Playing a character called Norman, he brought his familiar stage and television personality to the big screen as a young man with the ambition to become a window dresser in a major department store. Ever lovable victim of his own clumsiness, all Norman's efforts to improve himself result in chaos. That is, until he meets Sally (Lana Morris), the girl of his dreams. Then things turn disastrous. Costarring Margaret Rutherford, Trouble in Store introduced Wisdom's self-penned song which would become his theme, "Don't laugh at Me ('cause I'm a Fool)". The film became a massive box-office hit and won Wisdom a BAFTA Award. Very much of its time, admittedly, it's still highly entertaining. In 1956 the title of his latest film, Up in the World accurately described Norman Wisdom's career. This was the great British comedian's fourth hit in as many years, this time finding himself employed as window cleaner to Lady Banderville (Ambrosine Phillpotts). Apart from having hundreds of windows to polish, things would be going fine for Norman if it weren't for the endless practical jokes played by Lady Banderville's son, Sir Reginald (Michael Caridia). However, when the irritating Reggie is kidnapped, Norman has the chance to prove himself a hero, and it just might impress his beautiful costar Maureen Swanson. By now Wisdom was set on a winning formula, working with much the same team as on his three previous smashes, including Jerry Desmonde as Major Willoughby, who had starred in both Trouble in Store (1953) and Man of the Moment (1955).

After appearing on three early BBC-TV sitcoms, Norman Wisdom made a string of comedies for the Rank Organsation. UP IN THE WORLD is one of his typical slapstick farces. Here, Norman is a window cleaner at a mansion. His work is interrupted by the estate owner's son, who wants to be taken into town. While there, the boy is the victim of a kidnapping attempt. Norman fights off the bad guys. His young charge sustains amnesia from a bump on the head, and can't remember anything about the crime.Sir Norman co-stars with Jason Robards, Britt Ekland and Forrest Tucker in the 1968 homage to burlesque, THE NIGHT THEY RAIDED MINSKY'S.Parenthetical number preceding title is a 1 to 10 imdb viewer poll rating.(6.2) Up in the World (UK-1956) - Norman Wisdom/Maureen Swanson/Jerry Desmonde/Michael Caridia/Colin Gordon/Ambrosine Phillpotts/Michael Ward
