Episode 76 - The Lady Vanishes
The lady certainly did vanish, but was it all in the mind of Iris Henderson played by Margaret Lockwood or is something sinister afoot? In what has been described as a “comedy thriller” Alfred Hitchcock directs Margaret Lockwood, Michael Redgrave, Paul Lukas, Dame May Whitty and a cast of very interesting supporting characters in the 2nd of our train themed movies. We mention a couple of other movies during the podcast. Apparently the characters of Caldecott and Charters went on to appear in other movies including “Night Train To Munich”. And was there really a red car in the chariot scene in Ben Hur (Spoilers: it’s a myth). And yes, Alfred Hitchcock did make a cameo appearance in this movie, albeit a very very brief one.
