A Night At Earl Carroll's 1940

 

Starring: Ken Murray

When gangsters kidnap stars of Earl Carroll's nightclub, the restaurant staff put on their own show.

Sorry, but I never got engaged with this at all. Humour just wasn't funny and songs never did it for me either.   1/10

Napoleon And Samantha 1972


 Starring: Michael Douglas

When his old guardian dies, a small boy and his girl friend run away with their pet lion.

Absolutely charming. Bid names like Michael Douglas and Jodie Foster and the grandparents from The Waltons. Sometimes you need a film that looks great and makes you feel good. The undoubted star was the lion.      9/10

The Teckman Mystery 1954

 

Starring: Margaret Leighton

An author commissioned to write the biography of a dead airman finds him very much alive and his own life in danger.

Fairly routine thriller of its time that gets a little too complicated for its own good but has some nice moments.   5/10

Finger Of Guilt 1956

 

Starring: Richard Basehart

An American film producer in England is plagued by a strange girl who claims to have been his mistress.

Has a quite cheap look to it and wasn't terribly interesting despite some good looking performers.    4/10
