- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Trains are perfect settings for murder mysteries and thrillers. The best of them is Alfred Hitchcock's The Lady Vanishes"
-
"It is directed with such skill and velocity that it has come to represent the quintessence of screen suspense."
-
"The picture could easily have slipped into pure melodrama, but the blend of comedy, sophistication and political intrigue, as well as excellent character development, puts it in a class by itself."
-
"The story [from The Wheel Spins by Ethel Lina White] is sometimes eerie and eventually melodramatic, but it’s all so well done as to make for intense interest"
