Rome Express (1932)

A sinister character boards the Rome Express on the trail of a valuable Van Dyke painting, recently stolen from a Paris gallery. Much to his annoyance he finds the train populated with a motley assortment of passengers including adulterous lovers, a wealthy philanthropist, a golf fanatic, a French police chief and an American silent-film star – any one of whom could have the painting he desperately seeks…

A key 1930s thriller from director Walter Forde (Ghost Train), Rome Express stars Conrad Veidt (Casablanca) – in his first British film role – alongside Cedric Hardwicke (Rope) and Gordon Harker (The Ring) as intrigue unfolds on the legendary express train that once linked Paris to Rome.

Whimsically scripted by BAFTA-nominee Sidney Gilliat (The Green Man), this seminal adventure would ultimately inspire a genre of thrillers and is presented here in a brand new High Definition transfer from original film elements in its as-exhibited aspect ratio.

Rome Express will be released on 16th November 2015 on UK Blu-ray (RRP £14.99) and DVD (RRP £9.99), courtesy of Network’s ‘The British Film’ collection.

Directed by genre stalwart Montgomery Tully, Dead Lucky is presented in a brand-new transfer from the original film elements, in its as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratio.
