STRANGERS ON TWO TRAINS: NOEL COWARD AND DAVID LEAN’S BRIEF ENCOUNTER

”Coward’s screenplay is a marvel of construction, beginning with the end of the affair as seen by a nosy neighbor of Laura’s who has no idea what kind of emotionally volatile farewell she’s just wandered into. Neither do we, until the scene is replayed at the end of the picture. Meanwhile the trains come and go, carrying missed connections and broken hearts.” – Crooked Marquee, 04/18/2025
