Thunder on the Hill

An excellent film
Thank goodness this "Thunder On The Hill" is available now. This is an excellent film. Though set in the English countryside the film is made entirely on sets indoors. But the effect is convincing, not contrived, and made deliberately strange and compelling to reflect the theme and emotions of the film. It is a mystery you will not until the very end be able to guess "who done it". All the actors, most now deceased, are incredibly good. I recommend this film and urge viewers to agitate Universal, WB, etc. to release good copies of other classics from the bygone Hollywood era.

THUNDER ON THE HILL
THUNDER ON THE HILL WAS WORTH EVERY PENNY IF YOU ARE INTO OLD FILMS AND MYSTERIES. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS TO YOUNG AND OLD.

Claudette Colbert shines as a nun
Claudette Colbert plays a nun who attempts to prove the innocence of a convicted murderess (Ann Blythe) who is scheduled to be executed. The story is not brilliantly constructed, but Colbert shines as a nun who, despite taking vows of obedience, cannot stop herself from trying to stop a miscarriage of justice.
The copy of the dvd is really excellent. I played it on my dvd blue ray player and was astounded to see how really well remastered it is!!!
I'm a fan of Claudette Colbert, and she never disappoints me. Love the woman madly!!!
