A woman's chance encounter with two men on the tube leads to a tale of romance and violence in this classic British thriller from 1928.

The film is set on the London Underground, where crowds jostle awkwardly in a way familiar to London's commuters of today and dark shadows loom in the network's closed-door spaces.

The film also takes in London's pleasant parks and raucous pubs and ?ends with a much lauded and hair-raising chase scene, starting in the now disused Lots Road power station (which formerly powered the London Underground) then moving across rooftops before descending again into London's subterranean world for a menacing finale in an underground lift.

It will be accompanied by Donald MacKenzie on the restored church organ in a candlelit St John's Church, Notting Hill. There will be a bar and popcorn available on the night. Don't miss this special event!
