Mister Ten Per Cent

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mister Ten Per Cent is a 1967 British comedy film.

[edit] Plot

Charles Drake plays a construction worker and amateur dramatist who dreams of having his (horrendous) play 'Oh My Lord' produced. A dishonest producer agrees to produce the play so that he can claim insurance on its failure. Unexpectedly, the play is a hit with audiences as they view it as a comedy. Drake is upset by the turn of events and attempts to ruin the production despite that he owes everyone 10 per cent of the revenue (hence the title of the film).
