Storm in a Teacup is a 1937 British romantic comedy film directed by Ian Dalrymple and Victor Saville and starring Vivien Leigh, Rex Harrison, Cecil Parker, and Sara Allgood.
Journalist Frank Burdon (Rex Harrison) works for a tiny Scottish paper. He is sent to write a light piece about government official Willie Gow (Cecil Parker), but decides to pen a more critical story when he sees Gow deny a local woman ownership of her dog because she can't pay for the animal's license. The article damages Willie's reputation and sparking a rivalry between the two men. Matters are further complicated when Frank falls for Willie's daughter, Vickie (Vivien Leigh).
