Inc.. 445 Park Avenue, New York City. Abbott and Costello "gag" their way through a film bearing some slight resemblance to the traditional Western thriller.

In a simple, yet adult, story of love and frustration in a small English city, Celia Johnson and Trevor Howard turn in astonishingly fine performances. Based on a short Noel Coward play. Brief Encounter is a compellingly believable piece of understatement.
