**** Well movie night is here (06/09/15) ****

[is that my watch]

Well tonight movie of choice is the 1935 version of the 39 steps staring Robert Donat and Madeleine Carroll some say this is the best it was the first I do believe. But I personnel think the 1959 version with kenneth more and taina elg is my favourite (it also had a walk on well drive on in this case by one of the carry on actors ) and the 1978 robert powell version as the worse as it was just changed about to much if I remember right but I wonder what version is your favourite so here it is the 39 steps hope you enjoy

yes think English but was living in Africa but don't quote me on that but have you seen the robert powell one I did ages back and I am sure I did not like it and that they had change it all around ?

Pretty sure the RP one was said to be closer to the story, more boys own than hitchy. Vaguely remember a buster keaton hanging onto big bens hands moment

I read the book not so long ago. Certainly has dated. Well, it is 100 years old, after all. Whatever you do, don't watch the Rupert Penry-Jones version that was made for television a few years ago. Awful.
I have a soft spot for the Robert Donat/Hitchcock version.

well yes it is a very close call between RD and KM but yes both are well worth watching but now you got me thinking was it the made for t.v one. was the one I thought was bad now hmmm will have to have a look at RP one when I get chance now
