Stranger in the House (DVD + Blu-ray) Directed by Pierre Rouve, Produced by Dimitri Grunwald Once an eminent barrister, John Sawyer (James Mason) has become a cynical, reclusive drunk, long deserted by his wife, baffled by the burgeoning youth culture and held in contempt by his daughter, Angela (Geraldine Chin). But when her boyfriend is wrongfully accused of murder, Sawyer must confront his demons and a changing world in order to defend him. Little seen since its original release, stylishly in Winchester and Southampton by Academy Award®-winner Kenneth Higgins (Georgy Girl) and co-starring Ian Ogilvy (Witchfinder General), this striking psychological thriller based on Maigret creator Georges Simenon's celebrated novel is ripe for rediscovery.
