In today's edition the High Jinks Repertory Company anticipate November 5 by two-and-a-half months, when they decide to present their version of 'The Gun-powder Plot... or A Rocket for the Government.' Needless to say the show ends with the big bang our trio had been hoping for, though the havoc caused is not quite what they had planned.

Alfred Hitchcock's first excursion into the realm of psychiatry-a field later brilliantly explored in Marnie. Beautifully photographed by George Barnes with music by Miklos Rozsa, Spellbound is an exciting and mentally stimulating film only jarred by the strange drama sequences credited to surrealist painter Salvador Dali.
The film is not without its humour and Hitchcock pokes fun at psychiatrists, particularly in a delightful staffroom sequence at the mental home.
