Whistle and I’ll Come to You (1968)
Dir: Jonathan Miller
A
university professor, confident that everything which occurs in life
has a rational explanation, finds his beliefs severely challenged when,
during a vacation to a remote coastal village in Norfolk, he blows
through an ancient whistle discovered on a beach, awakening horrors
beyond human understanding.
Bedazzled (1967) Dir: Stanley Donnen
Stanley
is a short order cook, infatuated with Margaret, the statuesque
waitress who works at Wimpy Burger with him. Despondent, he prepares to
end it all when he meets George Spiggott AKA the devil. Selling his soul
for 7 wishes, Stanley tries to make Margaret his own first as an
intellectual, then as a rock star, then as a wealthy industrialist. As
each fails, he becomes more aware of how empty his life had been and how
much more he has to live for.
