I’m not too sure that with London regularly steeped in dense fog and with a murderer lurking the streets at night, I’d be looking to be renting out my spare room, but luckily for musician “Angeloff” (Ivor Novello) he not only finds bed and board with the kindly “Bunting” family but gets an added bonus in that he is soon also courting the daughter of the house, “Daisy” (Elizabeth Allan). Is he all he seems? Well the police are less than convinced as some of his nocturnal activities out-of-doors leave him open to suspicion. Now, what undoubtedly compromises this is the fact that the audience is in on the secret a bit too early in the proceedings and that it does take rather a while to get itself up and running. Once it is, though, the contributions from a lively Barbara Everest and A.W. Baskcomb as his hosts; the possibly a little too flighty Allan and the engaging Novello - who does manage to squeeze in a tune to remind us that it isn’t so very long since this would have been a silent movie, all build well enough to it’s dimly-lit denouement. Keep an eye out for Jack Hawkins and if you try not to compare it to other (earlier) versions, then I think it’s quite a watchable outing for a charismatic star.
