The lazily paced opening act kept me waiting for the thriller part to come, but then I realized it was actually super funny (see C+C at dinner with Miss Froy) and it ended up setting up the ensemble cast of characters perfectly for the uniquely comedic thriller to follow (see Caldicott during the gun fight: "We'll never get to the match now"), with the witty banter of Gilbert and Iris carrying us breezily through the engaging mystery right to its ending that hit all the right (piano) notes.

A lot of the humour in the first act fell flat for me leading to it dragging a bit (this is probably not helped by the fact that I found the two cricket fan characters low-key irritating throughout), but from the moment the mystery kicks in the film is for the most part electrifying and a delightful romp.

A light-hearted, nearly jaunty, thriller. Hitchcock flexes his cinematic might, and delivers a sold film with great performances. HOWEVER, it puts a bee in my bonnet that there's a rather large plot hole towards the end of the film. I am not usually one to care about these things, but to not give any spoilers, something happens and is forgotten about only a few moments later. I am currently writing a strongly worded letter to my MP.

A delightfully early Hitchcock that combines suspense and humor. It does have a few faults. The whole ordeal in the hotel takes too long as an introduction. The other passengers are caricatures of villains, taking out any doubt about what's happening.

"The Lady Vanishes" has so much promise: a likable cast, a great folk tale as a source, and the master himself Alfred Hitchcock at the helm. The movie has a slow start, establishing its ensemble players, and picks up in the middle once the conflict comes in. The mystery unravels how you hope it would in a Hitchcock film: you are kept in uncertainty for a while but then are let in on the secret little by little, often before the characters. It's got funny moments but I expected more from the end.
