In this children's film, an enterprising gang of kids create a homemade zoo because they cannot have pets in their apartment. Their "zoo" is located behind an empty manor in an old garden. Unfortunately, the manor is the hideout of three jewel thieves. The brave children and their critters team up to defeat the bad-guys. ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide

Lease of Life was the next-to-last film in the relatively short cinema career of actor Robert Donat. Written for the screen by Eric Ambler, the story is set in a small rural community, where William Thorn (Donat) serves as parson. Upon learning that he has only a year to live, Thorn begins to see his parishioners, and his purpose on earth, in a whole new light. The plot is thickened when a dying villager puts his money into the parson's care; in dire need of cash to pay for his daughter's school tuition, Thorn is sorely tempted to dip into the funds himself. Exceptionally well cast, Lease of Life features Kay Walsh as Thorn's wife, Adrienne Corri as their daughter and Vida Hope as the wealthy villager's grasping missus. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
