RENOWN B MOVIE FAN CLUB LETTER JUNE 2011
Dear B Movie Fans

Firstly it was lovely to meet some of you at The Film fair at Ruislip last month, a great day out for all classic film lovers and I believe a good time was had by all with some excellent bargains on the renown Stall! We are looking into attending more fairs this year – if you have one local to you that you feel would be a good idea for Renown to attend – please let us know!

Our release for this month, is THE TRAITOR (aka The Accused) -starring. Anton Diffring, Donald Wolfitt & Christopher Lee This 1957 E.J. Fancey production is quite remarkable. Firstly, it is not a film typical of E.J. Fancey’s output and in many people’s opinion, it is by far their best production. Although there aren’t many location shots, with a good script and a very fine cast, the film works.
It’s a post wartime story of French resistance and a traitor; Anton Diffring is excellent as a concert pianist rather than his usual nasty Nazi and Christopher Lee is very good without his cape and fangs! Mr Wolfit gives a typical Wolfit turn but most interesting is perhaps the director Michael McCarthy, who also wrote the screenplay and passed away in 1959 at the tender age of 42 and seemed well set to go on to bigger and better things. Picture and sound are excellent following restoration.
