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.

Up next "The Harvey Girls"
