BBC mystery thriller The Lady Vanishes to air on 3sat

The 2013 BBC mystery thriller, The Lady Vanishes, is scheduled to broadcast on 3sat on Sunday, November 1, at 20:15.

Based on Ethel Lina White’s 1936 literary classic The Wheel Spins, the film serves as a modern interpretation of the story famously adapted by Alfred Hitchcock in 1938. Set on a 1930s train traveling to London, the plot follows a young woman named Iris, played by Tuppence Middleton, who meets an elderly passenger, Miss Froy, played by Selina Cadell. After Miss Froy disappears, Iris finds that no other passengers claim to have ever seen her, leading to a narrative centered on psychological disorientation and unreliable characters.

The production holds an IMDb rating of 6.1 out of 10 and a 42 percent audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.
