tomorrow afternoon, a cracker SLEEPING CAR TO TRIESTE . Sleeping Car to Trieste
Sleeping Car to Trieste is a 1948 British comedy thriller film directed by John Paddy Carstairs and starring Jean Kent, Albert Lieven, Derrick De Marney and Rona Anderson.[1] It was written by Allan MacKinnon and is a remake of the 1932 film Rome Express. Plot Zurta and Valya are at ease in sophisticated society. Zurta steals a diary from the safe of an embassy in Paris while they are guests at a reception there, killing a servant who walks in on the theft. Poole, an accomplice, is passed the diary, but double-crosses them and attempts to flee with it on the Orient Express traveling between Paris and Trieste. Just in time, Valya and Zurta board the train, on which compartments are scarce, leading to unintended consequences. They start looking for Poole, who seeks to conceal himself and the diary, which is said to be capable of kindling a new conflict in the aftermath of World War II. Other travelers on the train, some of whom become involved incidentally in the intrigue, include a US Army sergeant with an eye for the ladies, an adulterous couple, a pestering stockbroker, an arrogant and wealthy writer, his brow-beaten secretary, an ornithologist, and a famed French police inspector. Staff and other passengers provide light-hearted scenes. The diary passes through the hands of several people before the police investigate Poole’s mysterious death. Just when it is successfully completed, Zurta takes it at gunpoint and leaps from the train…not safely onto the tracks but unknowingly immediately in front of a passing express. |

nostalgia. 6.35 pm tonight , Down to Sussex 1964.
Overview Sussex - A country rich in scenic beauty and history. South Down and Weald - open space and green woodland. This is Sussex, a county rich in scenic beauty, seaside resorts and international events; peaceful downland villages and fertile weald. History shows itself everywhere, right back to the threshold of legend - The Long Man of Wilmington and Chanctonbury Ring. All this the traveller can see and enjoy, together with the present-day delights of, for example, the Petworth Show, Goodwood Races, polo at Cowdray Park, Glyndebourne, and the fun of the Sussex coast. |

If you think the HR looks uninviting this afternoon there are 2 cracing films on:
12.55 Film 4 Yesterdays Enemy WW2 drama starring Stanley Baker, Leo McKern (Rumpole) and Gordon Jackson set in the Burmese jungle, great film possibly Bakers best in B/W. 1.00 5 Action One Eyed Jacks starring Marlon Brandon and Karl Malden, great Western film. If you can't watch i suggest recording both for another time, brilliant films. |
