In 1889, young Englishwoman Vicky Barton (Jean Simmons) and her brother Johnny (David Tomlinson) arrive in Paris to see the Exposition Universelle. This is Vicky's first time in Paris, and after checking into a hotel, she drags her tired brother to dinner and the famous Moulin Rouge. She finally retires for the night, while Johnny has a late-night drink. When English painter George Hathaway (Dirk Bogarde) drops off his girlfriend, Rhoda O'Donovan (Honor Blackman), and her mother (Betty Warren) at the hotel, he asks Johnny for change for a 100 franc note to pay a carriage driver; Johnny loans him 50 francs and gives him his name and room number.
The next morning, Vicky finds a blank wall where Johnny's room used to be. When she questions hotel owner and manager Madame Hervé (Cathleen Nesbitt), the latter claims she arrived alone. The room number now adorns the common bathroom. Madame Hervé's brother Narcisse (Marcel Pontin) and the day porter (Eugene Deckers) back up her story.
Frantic, Vicky goes to see the British consul (Felix Aylmer), followed secretly by Narcisse. She has no proof of her brother's existence, so the consul can only suggest she find a witness, Nina (Zena Marshall), the hotel maid who attended her. Nina had informed her that she was going up in a balloon with her boyfriend at the Exposition that day, so the consul takes her there. Tragically, she is too late. Before she can talk to Nina, the balloon ascends, bursts into flames, and plummets to the ground, killing the two passengers.
Vicky tries the French police commissaire (Austin Trevor). He questions Madame Hervé and her brother, but can find nothing amiss in their story. Since her room has been reserved for only two nights, Vicky has to leave the hotel. Madame Hervé offers her a ticket home to England, which she is forced to accept, as she has little money left. However, unbeknownst to either party, Rhoda O'Donovan has been asked by George Hathaway to deliver a letter containing his loan repayment to Johnny. Not finding his room, Rhoda slips the envelope under Vicky's door, where she finds it.
Vicky goes to see George. When he confirms having met her brother, she bursts into tears. He offers his assistance. George notices there are six balconies, but only five rooms on the floor, and finds the missing hotel room, the entrance having been covered over to be part of the wall.
Under questioning by the police, Madame Hervé reveals where Johnny has been taken. It turns out that he became sick with the Black Plague during the night. The news would have been disastrous for the Exposition, so he was secretly taken away to a hospital. George brings along Doctor Hart (André Morell), who tells Vicky her brother has a chance of living.

The first part of a televisual life of the film actor who died in 1999, drawing on new video footage from the archive of Bogarde's long-term partner and manager Anthony Forwood.

In this series, first shown between 5th September to 10th October 1993, director Richard Lester (A Hard Day's Night, The Three Musketeers) surveys a remarkable decade in British filmmaking through archive clips and interviews with directors and stars.

In a confused welter of artistic licence, this is the classical music biopic which makes 'Song to Remember'look like a masterpiece. Bogarde succeeds in diminishing the reputation of the musical colossus who spanned European music for most of the 19th Century. The absurdities of the plot, the sequoia-like quality of the acting and the prevalence of historical,musical and linguistic anachronisms combine to elevate this offering to the status of an A1 turkey.How a pianist of the stature of Bolet came to be mixed up in this fiasco can only be guessed at. The characterisation of Liszt fails to convey even a minute impression of his magnetic personality and the overwhelming effect that he had on not only his audiences, but also his pianistic rivals.Clara Schumann herself said that 'we toil over that which Liszt reads at sight!' Whilst the emphasis seems to focus on his romantic prowess,rather than his status as the greatest pianist of the century or,arguably, of all time, one feels,nevertheless, that this was an opportunity lost.

Sir John Mills' life told through his own colour home movies!
'Moving Memories' is a unique opportunity to experience the life of a film legend through his own 16mm home movies. Sir John started shooting in 1948 before home movie making became widely accessable. He shot on the then groundbreaking colour reversal film which means that many of his colour clips are behind the scenes on movies released in black and white, such as 'Ice Cold in Alex' and 'Dunkirk'. The cast list for these never before seen home movies is extraordinary. Sir John recorded personal moments with unforgettable stars.
Moving Memories features interviews with Sir John , Hayley, Juliet, Jonathan Mills, & Lord Attenborough. It features classic movie clips, plus never before seen personal home movie footage, and amazing behind the scenes shots. A truly unique film (60 minutes).
Following the discovery of 12000 feet of personal 16mm home movies in Sir John Mills' attic, Marcus Dillistone directed and edited 'Moving Memories', a 60 minute film which tells the extraordinary life and career of Sir John Mills, uniquely told through Sir John's own behind-the-scenes footage!
The 'cast' of these unique home movies reads like a cinema who's who: Rex Harrison, David Niven, Stewart Grainger, Jean Simmons , Dickie Attenborough, Dirk Bogarde, Ernest Borgnine and Angela Lansbury... to name but a few!

A look at the ideas and people that was involved in the naziploitations movies.

A look at never completed version of I, Claudius. This is a wonderful look at film making in the golden age, both as it was and as memory has made it. We get to see the stars and crew talk about a project that got away and how it still haunts them.
This is one of the best films on films ever made, partly because it shows us what might have been a treasure, but also because it does what what movies do best, create an illusion of something that doesn't really exist. With a film like this, made decades after events, the mind is left to ponder what the aborted film might have been. From the few scraps of actual footage we expand it out to a completed film that might have been one of the greatest films of all time. Of course it all could have gone south as well, but the fun is in what might have been....
