Chiddiatt: Anna, Anna!
Anna Chiddiatt: Yes darling.
Chiddiatt: Your pad and pencil quickly! Quickly before I lose the inspiration.
[Dictating his latest oeuvre]
Chiddiatt: The scent of the room drifted slowly upwards as she gave him a pear-shaped look.Significant vital almond-blossom falling on guitar strings in small Italian towns came to his mind as he bent. What was that? Sordid, time-shattering, comes tap, tap, tap, a knocking on the door.

A Good Time Was Not Had By All

In 1935 Gaumont British produced 14 films including such classics as The 39 Steps and First A Girl.They also decided in that year that they would make this quota quickie and handed the job to Michael Powell.What the end results show is that even a great director such as Michael Powell can not turn dross into gold.Of course any film which features the ever theatrical Ernest Theisiger can not fail in part to be entertaining but this really is a rather lame effort and clearly Powell just wanted to get it done with as quickly as he could.The denouement of this film reminds me of the Perry Mason series when in the courtroom the culprit breaks down and confesses.To be quite honest by a process of elimination it is not that difficult to guess whodunit.Muriel Aked has what must be one of her best roles.
