A slick comedy, characteristic of British movies of the era, LAW AND DISORDER is a beer keg of laughs squeezed into a brief 76 minutes. Redgrave is a crook who has made scads of pounds with various cons and schemes. His success is somewhat tempered by the fact that he is regularly sent away
by a stern and pompous judge, Morley. That doesn't bother Redgrave too much, but what does concern him is that his son, Burnham, does not find out what daddy does for a living. So Redgrave fills young Burnham with malarkey about being a missionary to cover his stays in the clink. Burnham grows up
believing that Redgrave is a religious do-gooder instead of a crook. The scenes bet...
