The Lady Vanishes meets The Third Man
The producers wrote films byHitchcock and Carol Reed, and it shows. A lightweight suspenser,with the charm of impeccably urbane Fairbanks and that Paper Doll lady (surprisingly, Jack Hawkins lacks a light touch). Marvellously photographed by Robert Krasker-- how did he fit it in with The Third Man -- in the Dolomite Mountains (see contemporary report in Sight and Sound magazine). Little recognised, but this is cinematic stscore 10/10
