The CinePearl Take
On the Double is a classic-era English film in the comedy mould — expect humour and a lighter touch. Melville Shavelson directs and the script comes from Jack Rose. With 11 credited cast members, it has a wide, ensemble feel. Made in United States, it is a natural pick for anyone exploring English-language films. Released in 1961, it has had time to build an audience and word of mouth. At 92 minutes, it keeps a brisk pace.
