From stalwart Ealing director Basil Dearden comes this enjoyable yet creepy wartime tale of a group of strangers driven to take shelter at a remote Welsh inn during a storm. What they don't know is that the inn was bombed by a German plane a year ago and their hosts were killed in the blast. Starring Mervyn Johns and real-life daughter Glynis Jones, The Halfway House was written by Angus MacPhail, Diana Morgan and T.E.B. Clarke from the stage play by Denis Ogden.
