Tommy The Toreador (1959) This lively and enjoyable lightweight musical comedy stars Tommy Steele as a young British seaman in Spain who takes the place of a bullfighter.

When the bullfighter is set up by a bunch of smugglers to take the rap for their crimes, Tomkins must step in and replace the bullfighter for one long, awful day. He hopes to win his fortune as the stand-in matador, free the real bullfighter, and get back to England. But the bulls have other ideas.
