	Pimlico - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Pimlico is a district in London, England and part of the City of Westminster.
		According to tradition, it received its name from Ben Pimlico, famous for his nut-brown ale, His tea-gardens, however, were near Hoxton, and the road to them was termed Pimlico Path, so that what is now called Pimlico was so named from the popularity of the Hoxton resort.
		In 1950, embarrassed by the slums and brothels with which Pimlico had become associated in the press and criminal courts, the Second Duke of Westminster sold the part of the Grosvenor estate on which it is built.

		Passports are connected with the right of legal protection abroad and the right to enter one's country of nationality.
		Passports usually contain the holder's photograph, signature, date of birth, nationality, and sometimes other means of individual identification.
		A passport is usually necessary for international travel, as it normally needs to be shown at a country's border, although there exist agreements whereby the citizens of some countries can enter some other countries with other identity documents.

		Passport to Pimlico is a whimsical comedy that fitted the mood of its day.
		The film is set in the inner London district of Pimlico, a few narrow streets hemmed in by railway lines and busy main roads, where a delayed bomb explosion reveals a hidden vault containing treasure and an ancient document proving that the land was granted to the Duke of Burgundy in perpetuity.
		Ultimately Pimlico is readmitted to the United Kingdom, and the relieved inhabitants sit down to a celebratory feast consisting of food rationed according to the law, with a brand new ration book and identity card at every place setting.

		Although Passport to Pimlico doesn't star the peerless Guinness, it was written by T.E.B. Clarke, who wrote the screenplay for The Lavender Hill Mob, and it features a number of actors who should be familiar to today's viewers.
		The jibes at British bureaucracy in Passport to Pimlico commence when an unexploded bomb accidentally goes off in a section of London and papers are unearthed revealing that the neighborhood actually belongs to the old kingdom of Burgundy.
		Although not as lethally satirical as Ealing's other hits of 1949 (Kind Hearts and Coronets and Whiskey Galore), Passport to Pimlico gave its audiences comic relief from postwar burdens, while painting a picture of a society free of restrictions as ultimately chaotic and anarchistic, a "spiv's" (thief's) paradise," as Holloway calls it.
