Watched a decent little flick on Talking Pictures. A 1949 British film called Vengeance is Mine. The type the churned out for £50 as the first feature in the local fleapit. It’s about a bloke who takes out a contract on his own life, to be completed four weeks later. The print was appalling and everything about it playhousey, but I’ve spent far worse hours watching $200 million Hollywood blockbusters. It held my attention nicely to the very end.
As an aside, I’m gutted that Kermode and Mayo have ended their Five Live Friday film show. That’s become a staple for me every week.
