Echo of Diana

Writen by CinemaSerf on March 27, 2022

This is quite an enthralling little low budget British thriller as Betty McDowell starts to investigate the suspicious death of her husband in a plane crash on the Turkish border. Was he a spy? We set out to discover with the help of journalists Clare Owen and Vincent Ball what exactly happened - is he actually dead? Ernest Morris was an old hand at keeping these moving along a-pace and does so adequately here, too, with plenty of double-crosses to keep it interesting. The jungle-drums music is of the time, and no less annoying for that - it is no substitute for taut writing.
