Hot Enough For June - Lionel Davidson at the cinema
I've long been a fan of Lionel Davidson's sparse but remarkable output. 'The Night of Wenceslas' was his first success, a tense but amusing tale of antics behind the Iron Curtain in 50's Czechoslovakia. I'll find time to discuss the book in full, but I was astonished to find that there was a film version, the 'Hot Enough For June' mentioned in the title of this post.
Check the IMDB entry here. That is some cast list, an assistant to Basil Brush, Rumpole, The Master (well, one incarnation anyway and Dirk Bogarde. I have sourced myself a copy and look forward to comparing it to the original book and the rather splendid Radio 4 dramatisation that was made some years back.
Now all we need is someone to start work on a film or small screen adaptation of 'Kolmsky Heights' and I will be very happy.
