P445 ORACLE 445 Sun30 Sep C4 2352:05 4-Tel FILM REVIEW Rome Express As C4 viewers will have discovered overthe course of the Going Loco season, railway trains are one of cinema's favourite locations for murder and mystery. Made in 1932, Rome Express is the archetypal train thriller, featuring a variety of dubious characters thrown together on a trip from Paris to Rome. Wittily and tensely scripted by Sidney Gilliat (who went on to write the classic 1938 Hitchcock railway thrillerThe Lady Vanishes), Rome Express is a rattling good yarn. 2/4 Next Feature Back-Up Sports What's New
