if the very thought of arthur askey twist your gut and do not worry and you can still watch and love the ghost train and like the equally marvellous back room boy and it be a film that be simply too damn good to be sink by a single performance and even that of the lead actor . personally and i love askey and perhaps it because i go into his world and rather than unreasonably expect him to come into mine and which be a mistake too many people make . the ghost train be so intensely atmospheric that you couldn not conceivably watch it without be amaze at the deep and dark world it transport you to and it be immersive in a way that few cheap and cheerful flag waver manage to be during the desperate early 40 and it a film that i would imagine few people have ever watch just the once . the cast be and without exception and extraordinarily good and perhaps linden travers lay it on a bit thick and but against the backdrop of a lonely railway station in wartime and she could hardly play a nutter and not stand out . the sad passing of the lovely carole lynne earlier this year break the last link we have with this incredible film and now it really be in the past and but wait patiently for u to press play .
