Green for Danger (Criterion)(Sealed)
In the midst of Nazi air raids, a postman dies on the operating table at a rural English hospital. But was the death accidental? A delightful and wholly unexpected murder mystery, British writer/director Sidney Gilliat's Green for Danger features Trevor Howard and Sally Gray as suspected doctors and Alastair Sim in a marvelous turn as Scotland Yard's insouciant Inspector Cockrill. A screenwriter who had worked with Hitchcock on such films as The Lady Vanishes and Jamaica Inn, Gilliat slyly upends whodunit conventions with wit and style.
SPECIAL FEATURES
- New, restored high-definition digital transfer
- Audio commentary by film and music historian Bruce Eder
- Interview with British film historian Geoff Brown
- English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing
- PLUS: A new essay by critic Geoffrey O'Brien and a director's statement
New cover by Geoff Grandfield
