		Like Strangers on a Train, The Lady Vanishes is a most enjoyable, rollicking, light thriller full of humour and suspense.

		The Lady Vanishes, is a precursor of films like To Catch a Thief and North by North West, that are replete with tension, suspense and humour.

	The Jujube Spotlight - The Lady Vanishes
		Looking back, what I admire most about "The Lady Vanishes" is the richness of it, how it manages to be so many engaging things all at once while still feeling completely seamless.
		The missing person of the title is Miss Froy (Dame May Whitty), a kindly English spinster who, at the beginning of the film, is stranded for the night at an alpine hotel along with a large crowd of French, Italian, German, and British travelers.
		From the personal romance to the cloak-and-dagger conspiracy, "The Lady Vanishes" is about people with a common bond looking out for each other.

	The Lady Vanishes (1938)
		If the lady of the title, played by the great Dame May Whitty, had merely sent a telegram or made a phone call, we would be without a classic Hitchcockian chase across Eastern Europe.
		Almost all of the passengers deny ever having seen the old lad and contend that she was an illusion brought on by Iris's accident with the falling flowerpot, a sincere young musician, Gilbert (Michael Redgrave) comes to her assistance.
		It was while preparing The Lady Vanishes that Hitchcock received the bid from Hollywood that was to make him the world's most famous director.

		At first glance The Lady Vanishes appears to be a frothy, lightweight treat, a testament to Alfred Hitchcock's nimble touch.
		Froy (Dame May Whitty) vanishes from her train car without a trace and the once quarrelsome couple unite to search the train and uncover a dastardly plot.
		The lady in question is Miss Froy (Dame May Witty), a splendid eccentric innocent old governess (in reality a British secret agent), who is kidnapped by the smooth Dr. Hartz (Paul Lukas), really the master enemy spy...

	The Lady Vanishes (1938) Filmjudge DVD Review
		Hitchcock managed in The Lady Vanishes, to explore the role of Britain as he views it in the world, and the social roles brought about by status of British individuals in society in relation to that larger view.
		Similarly, the heroine of The Lady Vanishes is hit on the head and falls in and out of consciousness, placing doubt on her perception.
		This occurs in "The Lady Vanishes" when the "patient" is brought aboard.

		The film that brought him to the attention of Hollywood, The Lady Vanishes is a piece of classic Alfred Hitchcock.
		Unable to locate her and faced with the flat denials of everyone as to Miss Froy's very existence, Iris fears for her sanity as she attempts to convince everyone that her aged friend may be in mortal danger.
		Vintage Hitchcock at his best, The Lady Vanishes is an exciting, amusing, charming and utterly compelling movie and one that can be viewed over and over again, without the slightest lessening of enjoyment.

	TMe: The Lady Vanishes Film Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		The Lady Vanishes is an intriguing tale of romance and murder.
		While it’s easy for people to vanish into thin air, it’s a rather difficult task when one is in constant motion.
		The Lady Vanishes has a classic Hitchcock set-up (a protagonist that the audience knows is telling the truth but whom no one will believe), masterful use of point-of-view shots, and a deftly blend of suspense and comedy.

	DVD Talk Review: The Lady Vanishes (1979) (Region 2)
		The Lady Vanishes seems to have grown out of the unexpected success of Murder on the Orient Express (1974), director Sidney Lumet's light-hearted, all-star mystery from Agatha Christie's story.
		The Lady Vanishes was filmed in Panavision, and presented here in letterboxed format, anamorphically enhanced for 16:9 televisions.
		It may not be a classic in its own right, but The Lady Vanishes is entertaining enough and certainly undeserving of its dismissed status.

	The Criterion Collection: Lady Vanishes, The
		Watching The Lady Vanishes, we’re as beguiled by the sparkling repartee of the lovers Iris and Gilbert and the daft by-play of cricket buffs Caldicott and Charters as we are riveted by the shocks and stunning plot turns.
		The central premise itself is wonderfully adroit: the unaccountably missing governess, Miss Froy, vanishes on a train where everyone denies she ever existed.
		The Lady Vanishes script, written in 1936, is a clear attack on Britain’s isolationist foreign policy under Chamberlain in the face of threats to Europe.

		Jonathan Mostow on Alfred Hitchcock's The Lady Vanishes (1938).
		For anyone unfamiliar with Breakdown, it's worth pointing out two things: that it is one of the most relentlessly gripping thrillers to have come out of America in the past 10 years; and that "the lady vanishes" is in fact a perfect synopsis of its plot.
		But, given the fruits that The Lady Vanishes has evidently borne, we can only be thankful that, all those years ago, Mostow was taken to such an ordinary film.

	Heroine Worship: Amelia Earhart, The Lady Vanishes
		The tall, shy, boyish Earhart was dubbed "Lady Lindy" after a 1928 flight that made her the first woman to cross the Atlantic by air, although she was little more than a passenger.
		By vanishing into thin air, Amelia Earhart seemed to merge with the elements of nature, which she had so often challenged and conquered.
		She became the archetype of the androgynous winged seraph who escapes the bondage of reproduction and biology.

		I’d not heard of this Hitchcock film, which he made while he was still based in Britain, basically to finish out a contract with a film company as far as I can tell.
		The on-train conspiracy strains credulity in its apparent completeness and the lengths the villains go to in order to dispose of the vanished lady are also a bit out there.
		In many respects his later work in The Lady Vanishes is related to this film.

		After she died, her absence was tangible because of the emptiness in the house, as well as in our lives.
		Although the ashes of our missing friend and family member were small consolation for the loss of her great fuzzy hearted presence, we nonetheless found comfort in the modified presence to which she'd been restored to our lives.
		We didn't, therefore, think it was amusing when the bag containing her ashes vanished from the box which held them.

		Criterion has already released a feature-packed edition of this 1937 Hitchcock classic (one of the last films he made in Britain before relocating to Hollywood), but if you'd like to save a few bucks and just have the film itself in your collection, LaserLight's edition is an attractive alternative.
		A rare whodunit in the Hitchcock oeuvre (Hitch always said it was better to let everybody know who the bad guys are right away), Margaret Lockwood stars in The Lady Vanishes as Iris Henderson, a young woman traveling by train from central Europe to England, where she plans to marry.
		LaserLight's The Lady Vanishes offers a pleasant source print that is showing some damage but also has good low-contrast detail.
