Overall rating: 3.5 out of 5
from 101 members

Classic thriller, directed by Terence Fisher and Antony Darnborough, about a woman whose brother mysteriously disappears whilst on holiday in Paris, and her struggle to find him. Vicky Barton (Jean Simmons) is dismayed when, upon waking on her first day in Paris, she goes to check on her brother Johnny (David Tomlinson) and finds that the place where his room door once was is now nothing but a blank wall. After appealing to British diplomats at the embassy, to no avail, Vicky reluctantly accepts a ticket home from the hotel manager, Madame Herve (Cathleen Nesbitt). However, before she can go, she meets George Hathaway (Dirk Bogarde), an aquaintance of her brother's, who may be able to help her in her quest.

Enjoyable, old-fashioned melodrama

By a customer , 04 Mar 2012

A well-made, pacy mystery thriller that kept us watching. Excellent central performance by Jean Simmons. Like many older films it packs the story into a short film by modern standards. Enjoyable

Taken at the fair

By itstinks (681 reviews) from North of Reading , 27 Oct 2011

Two people check into a hotel, one suddenly seems to disappear and then the hotel try to make the other belive that they checked in alone.

Whereas Taken went off on a thrill chase of implausible lengths this film stays mainly more down to earth.

Jean Simmons is gorgeous as the sister whose brother David Tomlinson disappears as does his hotel room but dashing Dirk Bogarde helps sort it all out.

A very enjoyable little adventure.
