The Lady Craved Excitement – 1950 | 69 mins | Thriller | B&W

Plot Synopsis

The Lady Craved Excitement

The Lady Craved Excitement was a BBC radio-inspired thriller involving the uncovering of an art smuggling racket by two cabaret artists. Barely watchable by today’s standards (and probably not much more tolerable at the time), it nevertheless remains of passing interest for its cast, which includes Michael Medwin, Sid James and Andrew Keir, all of them then in the early stages of what would prove to be lengthy and successful careers.
