Much enjoyed discussing Hitchcock's film of Strangers on a Train (and my meeting with Patricia Highsmith!) for Mean Streets, the Film Noir podcast...

And this remains a wonderful series. It is almost the Brett series 20 years before the Brett series. Wilmer is a superb Holmes and when Nigel Stock is allowed to be, he's a good Watson.

Following the Detective 'pilot', the Douglas Wilmer series of Sherlock Holmes began on this day in 1965 with The Illustrious Client. Peter Wyngarde and Jennie Linden were amongst those guesting.

💥NEW EP!💥We investigate a classic Hitchcock with crime fiction expert and critic @barryf48.bsky.social! Does STRANGERS ON A TRAIN (1951) deserve its reputation? 🎧Spotify: spoti.fi/4jTidMO 🎧Apple: bit.ly/42SfIEx #Hitchcock #FilmNoir
