Released in America as Young Scarface, this is one of the most sinister crime films ever made in Britain and, but for several cuts by the censor, it would also have been one of the most shocking. However, Graham Greene, scripting from his own novel (not in collaboration with Terence Rattigan as many sources state), also drew some of the film's teeth by allowing gullible waitress Rose the faint hope that her malicious husband might love her after all - a contrivance that was given a glutinously spiritual slant by director John Boulting. Richard Attenborough (as Pinkie the teenage gangster) turns in the best performance of his career, and he is magnificently supported by William Hartnell and the underrated Carol Marsh as Rose. | Director: John Boulting Cast List: Pinkie Brown : Richard Attenborough Ida Arnold : Hermione Baddeley Dallow : William Hartnell Rose : Carol Marsh Cubitt : Nigel Stock Spicer : Wylie Watson Prewitt : Harcourt Williams Fred Hale / Kolley Kibber : Alan Wheatley Phil Corkery : George Carney Colleoni : Charles Goldner Judy : Virginia Winter Frank : Reginald Purdell |

The franchise holders took a real risk by handing this third Harry Potter film to a Mexican director who's best known for the smart, sexy but low-budget road movie Y Tu Mamá También and, more telling, the Oscar-nominated A Little Princess. But the decision has paid dividends. Alfonso Cuarón brings a darker, edgier, scarier feel to this instalment, which has boy wizard Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) contending not only with Gary Oldman's escaped convict, but also with the difficulties of becoming a teenager. But there's still plenty of fun to be had, with ghosts, ghouls and gadgets galore, the most striking gizmo being a shape-shifting triple-decker bus that, were it real, would solve London's traffic congestion at a stroke. David Thewlis, Emma Thompson and Timothy Spall join the list of cameoing celebrities, while the young leads are all growing into their roles. The film has the odd dull patch, and there are scenes weighed down by too much plot, but, by and large, this adventure is on a par with its predecessors, and, in many respects, is even better. Potter fans will not be disappointed. | Director: Alfonso Cuaron Cast List: Harry Potter : Daniel Radcliffe Ron Weasley : Rupert Grint Hermione Granger : Emma Watson Prof Albus Dumbledore : Michael Gambon Prof Minerva McGonagall : Maggie Smith Rubeus Hagrid : Robbie Coltrane Prof Severus Snape : Alan Rickman Prof Lupin : David Thewlis Prof Sybill Trelawney : Emma Thompson Sirius Black : Gary Oldman Mrs Molly Weasley : Julie Walters Mr Arthur Weasley : Mark Williams James Potter : Adrian Rawlins Lily Potter : Geraldine Somerville Uncle Vernon : Richard Griffiths Aunt Marge : Pam Ferris Aunt Petunia : Fiona Shaw Argus Filch : David Bradley (2) Fat lady in painting : Dawn French Draco Malfoy : Tom Felton Madame Rosmerta : Julie Christie Cornelius Fudge : Robert Hardy Peter Pettigrew : Timothy Spall Sir Cadogan : Paul Whitehouse Shrunken head : Lenny Henry |
