I love American history, French films, Italian food, and English writers.

This is where I keep track of films that I've watched and blurb what I thought about them.

I also write a blog about books: Every Book and Cranny

My favorite of Hitchcock’s British / pre-American films.  I’ve watched this film a handful of times but re-watched it last weekend as I’ve just acquired Criterion’s newly released blu-ray edition.  Well worth it!  The sound quality and images are much improved from the previous edition I own.
The Lady Vanishes (1938)
Director : Alfred Hitchcock
Starring : Margaret Lockwood, Dame May Whitty
My Rating : ******* 7 / 7
