Flying Fifty-Five
Bill Urquhart, a young wastrel disinherited by his father, tries to get a job as a jockey – just about the only thing he’s really good at. His name and position work against him, however, so he adopts an alias and prevails upon the charity of a drunken friend Charles Barrington, through whom he meets Stella Barrington - who has not only inherited her father’s racing stables but also his debts. Still incognito, he takes on the job of stable lad for Stella but little does she realise that he could be the man to finally put an end to her money worries forever.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
Flying Fifty-Five is a very strong film rated 7.6/10. Great direction and performances make this one well worth adding to your watchlist.
A high rating speaks for itself — this film found its audience and didn't let them down. Trust the collective taste.
A classic from 1939. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: any evening when you want quality cinema with no compromises.
