Cry Wolf

No B&W bombsites here or urchins making their own amusement in dens or camps. We are firmly in the bright-coloured Swinging Sixties with Mini Mokes (a beach buggy based on the Austin Mini) and mini dresses and coats-the attractive Judy Cornwell sporting these.

It's the usual theme of kids unearthing a plot/crime, no one believing them of course; some nervy chases and confinements; eventual beating/capture of the baddies; rueful apologies from Dad/Authority.

It slightly loses its way towards the end but, hey, this is for kids and all the young actors here play their parts well, and it must have been enjoyed in the day.

There are many, many cameos-some of substance like Pat Coombes, and some of brief seconds like Old Man Steptoe.

Another interesting CFF time capsule.
