Synopsis:
Ultra-suave Hollywood veteran Cesar Romero stars as the charming fogbound writer caught up in an intricate murder mystery in Lady in the Fog – a spirited Brit Noir from the most prolific director in sound film history, Sam Newfield.
Bonus features:
- New commentary on Lady in the Fog with Film Noir UK co-director James Harrison and film/TV historian and podcaster Sergio Angelini.
- New commentary on Scotland Yard Inspector with award-winning mystery writer Max Allan Collins and Cereal at Midnight podcaster Heath Holland.
- What, Where and How Much?: Did Hammer produce better “B” movie Noir than the American “Poverty Row” initiators of the genre? Heath Holland, cult film expert Toby Roan, writer, filmmaker and film programmer Heidi Honeycutt and Barry Forshaw, author of Brit Noir and The Rough Guide to Crime Fiction, argue the case.
- A Story of the London Fog: Christine L. Corton, writer of the award-winning and critically acclaimed London Fog – the Biography, explains the origins, effect and cultural permanence of the thick, yellow urban “pea-soupers” that used to plague London – a key plot element in Lady in the Fog but which have not existed in real life since the early 1960s.
- Prolific! The Sam Newfield Story: Sam Newfield was a journeyman director who just happens to be the most prolific film-maker in sound film history, with over 250 features to his credit.
- Toby Roan writes and narrates this video essay that looks at Newfield and his films, which he would make at a rate that would sometimes exceed more than twenty a year.
- Censor card, mute trailer and image gallery.
