In order of merit:


1.Hangover Square (1945) ***
2.The Lodger (1944) ***
3.The Undying Monster (1942) **1/2
4.The Locket (1946) **1/2
5.The Brasher Doubloon (1947) **1/2
6.Scrooge (1935) **1/2


I've managed to catch up with the first two recently while I was in Hollywood and they were every bit as stylish as their reputation suggests. I'd love to catch up with a few more of his films, especially BROKEN BLOSSOMS (1936), GUEST IN THE HOUSE (1944) and THE MAD MAGICIAN (1954).
