Listen "Foreign Correspondent (1940)"
Episode Synopsis
What happens when you mix a “mad love of country with an equally mad indifference to life”? Well, if Alfred Hitchcock's 1940 thriller is anything to go by, a crackpot peace movement and a nest of horrid spies, that's what!"What's Going On?" Bond fans! Our annual 3 Non Bonds film festival gets underway for the fourth and final time with Josh's selection of Hitchcock's international spy caper. Joel McCrea, Laraine Day and Herbert Marshall star in this curious yarn of war-time espionage, family secrets and romantic pursuit which showcases several features of the Bond formula in early form.
