Starring: Jean Simmons and Cecil Parker
A penniless widow augments her slender income by using her children to extort money from the wealthy
Based on the 1939 novel of the same name by G.B. Sterns this drama features a low-level run-by of a Southern Railway express hauled by a ‘Lord Nelson’ Class 4-6-0. This is possibly a Southern Railway promotional shot because the camera is set in the ‘four-foot’ of the adjacent line. The earlier scene filmed onboard a train used a quite obvious set.
