This weekend I got to watch the short film of the script I wrote on the big screen. It was quite a moment.

With any luck it'll play at a film festival near you soon. 🎥❤️

Wrong Number (1959) is a 1959 British heist thriller. It has a neat little plot, terrific acting and just the right amount of humour. The vital clue is a phone call, a wrong number that might be unlucky for the thieves. A good solid B-movie.

The Verdict (1964) is a British Edgar Wallace B-movie. It concerns a gangster and a dubious visa which is a clue to a murder 20 years earlier. Well-made, well-acted, fast-moving, witty and clever with an intricate plot that works perfectly.

David Lean’s celebrated screen love story Brief Encounter (1945). Two people meet at a railway station and fall in love but they're both already married to other people. In the 1940s an insurmountable obstacle. Still packs an emotional punch.

The main problem with Carol Reed's NIGHT TRAIN TO MUNICH (1940) starring Margaret Lockwood is that you're going to compare it to THE LADY VANISHES with which it has a lot in common. Not as good as Hitchcock's film but a decent train thriller.

Ricochet (1963) is one of the many Edgar Wallace crime thrillers from England’s Merton Park Studios and it's a typical entry in that cycle. In other words it’s an excellent little B-movie. A solicitor decides to blackmail his own wife.

Unforgettable as the musicologist hero of Hitchcock's (1938) and the fracturing ventriloquist in the standout segment of Ealing's (1945).

2/2

Peeping Tom (1960), the serial killer/voyeurism movie that wrecked director Michael Powell's career. A superb movie that remains disturbing.

Like Hitchcock's Psycho (from the same year) it pushed the edge of the envelope as far as screen terror was concerned.
