Strictly Confidential is a 1959 British comedy film directed by Charles Saunders and starring Richard Murdoch, William Kendall, Maya Koumani and Neil Hallett. [1] Two con-men, recently released from prison, are enlisted by a widow to help her recover control of her late husband's business.

Plot

Cast

Critical reception

The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "A cheap and shoddy little farce in a long outmoded tradition. Vulgar double-entendres take the place of wit and the actors struggle helplessly against impossible odds. " [2]
