Wiki.
Half a Sixpence is a 1967 British musical film directed by George Sidney and choreographed by Gillian Lynne. The screenplay by Beverley Cross is adapted from his book for the 1963 stage musical of the same name, which was based on Kipps: The Story of a Simple Soul, a 1905 novel by H. G. Wells. The music and lyrics are by David Heneker.
This was the final film made by Sidney, director of such films as Annie Get Your Gun, Kiss Me Kate, Bye Bye Birdie and Viva Las Vegas.
