[I include as a free bonus the DVD of Fritz Lang's MINISTRY OF FEAR (1944) starring Ray Milland, which takes liberties. . . , with hints of Gravity's Rainbow's early scenes.] "For Arthur Rowe the trip to the charity fete was a joyful step back into adolescence, a chance to forget the nightmare of the Blitz and the aching guilt of having mercifully murdered his sick wife. He was surviving alone, aside from the war, until he happened to win a cake at the fete. From that moment, he finds himself ruthlessly hunted, the quarry of malign and shadowy forces, from which he endeavors to escape though his mind remains obstinately out of focus." [publisher copy] "A master thriller and a remarkable portrait of a twisted character."--Time. "Greene's fictional products are to conventional mystery stories what an Alfred Hitchcock exercise in cinematic suspense is to the ordinary Grade B Whodunit."--Weekly Book Review. Of the film, Dave Kehr of the Chicago Reader wrote: "This 1944 thriller represents an epochal meeting of two masters of Catholic guilt and paranoia, novelist Graham Greene and director Fritz Lang. Ray Milland, just released from a sanitorium, finds the outside world more than a fit match for his delusions as he stumbles into an elaborate Nazi plot. The hallucinatory quality of the opening scene (an innocent country fair turns out to be a nest of spies) is reminiscent of Lang's expressionist films of the 20s, but this is a more mature, more controlled film, Lang at his finest and purest." Allmovie sez: "While it does not reach the same level of timeless classic as Carol Reed's The Third Man four years later, MINISTRY OF FEAR stands as a well-made, thoroughly gripping and intelligent example of film noir."--though in a murky print.
