Going to the flicks

In February 1945 Keith went to the movies and saw 'The Man in Half Moon Street'. The story is about a scientist who discovers how to prolong his life with disastrous consequences. It has been compared to Wilde's 'The Picture of Dorian Gray'

Here is how the movie ends.


Letter from Keith to his mom, 16 February 1945.
'I have seen quite a few shows (flicks) since I have been in London (The Man in half moon street, the thin man comes home). '


'The Thin Man Goes Home' looks a bit silly by comparison.
