The Lady Vanishes
UK | 1938 | 97 MINS
from Ethel Lina White’s short story The Wheel Spins, adapted by
Sidney Gilliat & Frank Launder and directed by Alfred Hitchcock
starring Margaret Lockwood & Michael Redgrave
In another example of a short story making an excellent film, Hitchcock has brought together the ingredients of mystery, comedy and suspense with masterly ease. When a fellow passenger disappears during a rail journey from Eastern Europe to Britain, Iris (Lockwood) fears she is going mad - or is the elderly lady’s absence part of a fiendish espionage plot?
Adults £6 | Under 25s £4
