- Synopsis:
- Jeremy Dilke (Edward Everett Horton), is a meek, mild-mannered businessman who allows everyone to use him for a doormat. While looking into his mirror, Dilke is confronted by his brusque, assertive alter ego, who declares "I am the man you have always longed to be". Armed with his new-found confidence, Dilke becomes a go-getting dynamo, much to the delight of heroine Helen (Genevieve Tobin), who knew he had it in him all along. Moon-faced Alastair Sim plays a wonderful cameo as a foreign interpreter.

The humour is long gone - The Man in the Mirror review by CB
The main character is a Will Hay type character. The actor even sounds a bit like Hay and uses his gestures. Go for the real thing, I would say, and avoid this poor imitation.
