Carol Reed
featuring
Ron Moody, Shani Wallis, Oliver Reed, Harry Secombe, Hugh Griffith, Mark Lester, Jack Wild
Inspired by Charles Dickens' novel Oliver Twist, Lionel Bart's 1961 London and Broadway musical hit glossed over some of Dickens' more graphic passages but managed to retain a strong subtext to what was essentially light entertainment. For its first half-hour or so, Carol Reed's Oscar-winning 1968 film version does a masterful job of telling its ...

A. J. Cronin's novel was brought to the screen by director Carol Reed.

Also known as Girl in the Case, this early Carol Reed effort tended to be dismissed or ignored by its director in later interviews.

Bank Holiday

featuring
John Lodge, Margaret Lockwood, Hugh Williams, Renee Ray, Linden Travers, Merle Tottenham
A minor effort from a major director, Bank Holiday is little more than a series of anecdotes involving middle-class Brightoners on holiday. Margaret Lockwood and Hugh Williams played the largest roles, as a couple who find love during their one-day respite from work. Comic relief (which in this film is superior to the straight plotting) is ...
