Product Description

This is a study of the work of Lance Comfort who made many films between 1941 and 1965. There was the success of his second feature as director, "Hatter's Castle" (1941) and when he returned to this melodcramatic vein in 1945 he made a series of studies in obsession, including "Bedelia" (1945) with Margaret Lockwood as a murderess, and "Temptation Harbour" (1947) starring Robert Newton as a decent man in the grip of erotic attraction. The book should appeal to students and researchers in British cinema, as well as to anyone with an interest in British films - and why they were the way they were - in their most productive period.
