Kind Hearts & Coronets begins with a man on death row, the camera following the arrival of the hangman on the night before the scheduled execution. The hangman stops before a locked cell door and asks how he should address the condemned man. He is told it is “your grace.”
A peek through the small hole and he sees a man calmly writing at a desk: Duke Louis D’Ascoyne Mazzini. He has written his story of the murders that have landed him in his current situation. It is almost always one of three, love, vengeance, or money. Or more often as not, AOT, K.
Louis’s story starts as vengeance, for his mother, who was denied respect from her titled family in life and a burial in the family tomb in death. As the bodies pile up, all of them acted by the great Alec Guinness, will love be the thing that trips up Louis’s mad plan? Of course it will! It always does.
