Other than that, any film is fair game. The London Nobody Knows (1967) Director: Norman Cohen Starring: James Mason Delving beneath the surface of tourist London, based on a book of the same name by Geoffrey Fletcher, this is both...

An honourable mention to The Man in Grey , which is being shown on Channel 4 on Thursday (1.40p.m.). It is one of those wartime films concerned with Anglo-American relations and it stars Margaret Lockwood, Stewart Granger and James Mason.
