This week on Alcohollywood, guest Justin from Consequence of Sound joins us as we recover from last week’s terrible Oogieloves to cherish a true classic: the 1934 Alfred Hitchcock thriller The Lady Vanishes! The last movie he made before heading to America, The Lady Vanishes sees young bride-to-be Iris (Margaret Lockwood) and wan Englishman Gilbert (Michael Redgrave) stuck in a mystery about an old governess (Dame May Whitty) who has suddenly disappeared on a train. No one seems to know anything about her, or believe that she ever existed - was she all in Iris’s head, or is something else going on? What follows is a tense but witty political thriller that still holds up today, and features some of Hitchcock’s signature tricks. Come join us in the mystery along with our drinking rules and custom cocktail!
