Programme 3 of 7--Films with the Dull Bits Cut Out

Young and Innocent 1937 directed by Hitchcock with Derrick de Marney, Nova Pilbeam

Hitchcock weaves his classic thriller techniques in with his trademark black humour in this adaptation of the Josephine Tey novel of a young girl helping a runaway man proves his innocence. Echoes of the 39 Steps run throughout.

The Franchise Affair 1952 directed by Lawrence Huntington with Michael Denison, Dulcie Gray

Based on another of Tey's great novels, an initially reluctant lawyer takes on a strange case of kidnapping and abuse over the increasing rancour of the village. Rarely seen.

Free film notes. Next programme July 27
