The back room boys are at it again! That’s right, we’re jumping back into the endlessly charming (so far) films of Powell and Pressburger. Sammy Rice (played by David Farrah) is a scientist working for an ill-defined problem-solving crew that the British government relies on for technical advice during the Second World War. Will his ever-suffering girl Susan (Kathleen Byron) give him the support he needs to battle his addictions, his injuries, Byzantine office politics, and a series of nefarious unexplored bombs dropped by German planes across the English countryside?
If you’d like to watch ahead for next week’s film, we will be discussing and reviewing Leonard Kastle’s The Honeymoon Killers (1970).
