Watched at the Grand Action in Paris. Hadn’t thought that a fair bit of dialogue would be in Yiddish but my GCSE French coped with the subtitles in those scenes!

They Made Me a Fugitive 1947
Very enjoyable ‘Brit noir’ with some corking dialogue. Always a treat to watch a film in one of Paris’ rep cinemas - this one at the Christine 21.

The Pajama Game 1957
Wow! Labour relations 👍🏻 Dodgy sexual politics 👎🏻 Bob Fosse choreography 👍🏻 V bland leading man (John Raitt) 👎🏻 Doris Day 👍🏻 No functional HR procedures at pajama factory 👎🏻 Costumes 👍🏻 Carol Haney dancing 👍🏻
Not what was I expecting.

The Lady Vanishes 1938
Wonderful. Spry, very funny and slyly political. File under 'essential viewing'.
