The Thief of Bagdad
Gaslight
- this is the Thorold Dickinson directed version with Anton Walbrook, not the George Cukor version with Ingrid Bergman.
Seance on a Wet Afternoon - but Performance is a very peculiar and facinating film
Goodbye Mr. Chips - I'm assuming that this is the 1939 version with Robert Donat and not the musical version with Peter O'Toole.

Gaslight - this is the Thorold Dickinson directed version with Anton Walbrook, not the George Cukor version with Ingrid Bergman.


Bill is correct. I should have noted the film as the original 1940 British version.
