Double bill of 1940s classics from Ealing Studios. In 'The Foreman
Went to France' (1941), after his bosses have sold three machines
for making fighter cannons to a French company, an English factory
foreman (Clifford Evans) travels to France in 1940 in order to
engineer the smuggling of the vital machinery out of the country
before the invading Germans can get their hands on it. Whilst in
France he meets two British soldiers (Tommy Trinder and Gordon
Jackson) who agree to help him as it soon becomes a race against
time. In 'Fiddlers Three' (1944), a couple of sailors (Trinder and

Whilst there they rescue a damsel in distress (Frances Day) and all
three get struck by lightning at midnight. This transports them
back in time to ancient Rome and they find themselves slaves who

Every guy wants to meet the girl of his dreams. Jesse Jordan
actually meets the girl who's FROM them. 20-year-old Jesse's not
your average pizza delivery boy. He also makes piles of cash
running money for the gambling ring his boss Angelo operates out
the back door of the shop. Still, Jesse refuses to listen when the
mysterious Taria-the same girl from those dreams-warns him that
Angelo's racket is about to turn deadly. Soon Jesse wonders if
Taria really can see the future. A series of strange-even
terrifying-omens all seem to warn that his life is headed down a
bloody path. Each day, and every moon-haunted night, brings new
signs that the hand of fate has Jesse in its grip, and that there
is no escape. Finally the darkest of omens come true and Jesse's
about to pay the ultimate price for Angelo. Only once Jesse's
safe-or is he?-can he handle a truth far more dangerous than any
bullet, the real truth about Taria and her magic?
