'Penny Paradise' (1938)
This film has a couple of rather nice suits:
Jack Livesey in a rather bold stripe, complete with double breasted waistcoat:
The actress is Betty Driver. She was 18 at the time. She retired from acting in 2011 at the age of 91 (having played Betty Turpin in British soap opera 'Coronation Street' since 1969) and died just 5 months later.
Not quite so bold, but also striped and with a double breasted waistcoat, is Jimmy O'Dea's suit. Peaked lapels and one-button fastening - rather nice.
As is fitting to their characters, Livesey (in the super-bold stripes) is a rather 'fast', untrustworthy type. Whilst O'Dea - in the sober stripes - is the good-guy.
