THE LADY VANISHES (1938, GREAT BRITAIN)

Posted on 04:02 by Unknown
Doesn't it seem like British movies have a distinctive air of, for lack of another word Britishness? 
But exactly HOW British are they?

How British is it? Month (Post 2 of 10)


One of the last of Hitchock's British films is noteworthy for its very snappy dialogue, intriguing plot and very likable lead actors (Michael Redgrave, Margaret Lockwood and Dame May Whitty). The action scenes near the end don't seem to hold up too well, but it's still a fun film to watch.

But how British is it?Quite British indeed! Especially seen in the supporting characters of Charters and Caldicott and their somewhat excessive love of the very British game of cricket.

Rating for Britishness from 1-10: About an 8. However, the section on Bandrika gets a 10 for its "Bandrikaness."
