Starlings are the charlatans of the bird world; they change their tune to match their company. In this comedy, Gary Wilson is the changeling; he loses his factory job, retrains as a butler and, under the patronage of a wealthy young woman, finds success in the City. Winner of the Golden Nymph for Best Film at the Monte Carlo Festival, it also won Lynsey Baxter a Silver Nymph for the Best Actress.
