Nothing But The Best

Presents a 'BLACK COMEDY' indictment of big business, ambition, greed, deceit and a well-planned homicide.

James, a young man starting with a large London firm of estate agents and auctioneers, is ambitious to get to the top. In a cheap café, he meets Charles, a drunken layabout who has everything James wants. Charles agrees to tutor James in life skills he thinks he needs to succeed. By bluff and sabotage, James rises in his firm, catching the eye of the owner and of his only daughter Ann.
