Orson Welles had planned to produce, direct and star Journey into Fear RKO's Journey Into Fearbut prior commitments compelled him to vacate the director's chair in favor of Norman Foster. Joseph Cottenwho starred as an American gunnery engineer up to his armpits in international intrigue, adapted the screenplay from the Journey into Fear by Eric Ambler. Targeted for extermination by the Gestapo, Cotten secretly books passage on a steamer bound from Turkey to Batumi. His fellow passengers include dancer Dolores Del Rio and her gigolo partner Jack Durant ; talkative Frenchwoman Agnes Moorehead and her browbeaten husband Frank Readick ; German archaeologist Journey into Fear Wyatt ; and a secretive, obese, thick-spectacled Journey into Fear, played by Orson Welles ' business partner Jack Moss. From the outset, it is no secret that Moss is a Nazi assassin. The question: who are his contacts, and how long will it be before Cotten is forced into a showdown? The very complex storyline was made even more Journey into Fear by RKO's decision to pare the film down to 69 minutes; several resultant plot gaps had to be bridged by an ongoing offscreen narration, presented in the form of a letter written by Cotten to his worried wife Ruth Warrick.

  • JOURNEY INTO FEAR a Lost Eric Ambler Story © Glenn Mosley, 2005
    JOURNEY INTO FEAR A lost Eric Ambler story © Glenn Mosley, 2005 By Glenn A. Mosley Director of Broadcasting School of Journalism and Mass Media University of Idaho A reviewer of the work of suspense author Eric Ambler once wrote that one of the keys to Ambler’s popularity with the public was his unique ability to use regular, everyday people in unusual situations. “The amateur as protagonist,” Ronald Ambrosetti wrote in “Dimensions of Detective Fiction,” “succeeds for Ambler by reducing all of the angst of international intrigue to a very personal level…Ambler gets the edge on suspense by making his spy- detective an average person—the reader identifies easily.” It was this very technique that Ambler was to employ in a largely forgotten story of his, though the title of the story may sound familiar. It was called “Journey Into Fear.” It is not, however, the famous thriller written by Ambler in the early 1940s and adapted by Orson Welles into a memorable film (another film version was also subsequently produced in 1974). This “Journey Into Fear” was a pilot for a proposed television series developed by Ambler and producer William Dozier in 1965, targeted for the 1966-67 season on NBC. However, the proposed series, to star film actor Jeffrey Hunter, did not sell, and has collected dust in film vaults ever since. Of course, Eric Ambler was a renowned novelist when he and Dozier began to develop the program in the summer of 1965, but he was well- acquainted with film and television, as well. Many of Ambler’s most famous novels had already been written by this time, including “Journey Into Fear,” “The Dark Frontier,” “Background to Danger,” and “Epitaph for a Spy.” All of these had been written prior to the outbreak of World War II.

Born in what was then British Guiana, she moved to the United Kingdom in the 1950s . Although Gilroy was a qualified teacher, racism prevented her getting a post for some time, and she had to work as a washer, a factory clerk and maid. Eventually she was employed and became the first Black headteacher in London. Her experiences of those years are told in her unconventional autobiography Black Teacher. Gilroy's creative writing began much earlier, in childhood, as a teacher for children and then in the 1960s when she began writing what was later published In Praise of Love and Children, a rare account of a woman’s experience of migration from the Caribbean.

  • IN Ronald J. Ambrosetti a Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School
    A STUDY OP THE SPY GENRE IN RECENT POPULAR LITERATURE Ronald J. Ambrosetti A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of Bowling Green State University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OP PHILOSOPHY August 1973 11 ABSTRACT The literature of espionage has roots which can be traced as far back as tales in the Old Test­ ament. However, the secret agent and the spy genre remained waiting in the wings of the popular stage until well into the twentieth century before finally attracting a wide audience. This dissertation analyzed the spy genre as it reflected the era of the Cold War. The Damoclean Sword of the mid-twentieth century was truly the bleak vision of a world devastated by nuclear pro­ liferation. Both Western and Communist "blocs" strove lustily in the pursuit of the ultimate push-button weapons. What passed as a balance of power, which allegedly forged a détente in the hostilities, was in effect a reign of a balance of terror. For every technological advance on one side, the other side countered. And into this complex arena of transis­ tors and rocket fuels strode the secret agent. Just as the detective was able to calculate the design of a clock-work universe, the spy, armed with the modern gadgetry of espionage and clothed in the accoutrements of the organization man as hero, challenged a world of conflicting organizations, ideologies and technologies. On a microcosmic scale of literary criticism, this study traced the spy genre’s accurate reflection of the macrocosmic pattern of Northrop Frye’s continuum of fictional modes: the initial force of verisimili­ tude was generated by Eric Ambler’s early realism; the movement toward myth in the technological romance of Ian Fleming; the tragic high-mimesis of John Le Carre' and the subsequent devolution to low-mimesis in the spoof; and the final return to myth in religious affir­ mation and symbolism.

A further recording dated 16th October 1996 is also included towards the end of this transcript. Roy Fowler suggests this was as a result of his regular lunches with Roy Ward Baker, at which they decided that some matters covered needed further detail. [DS 2017] Interviewer Roy Fowler [RF]. This transcript is not verbatim. SIDE 1 TAPE 1 RF: When and where were you born? RWB: London in 1916 in Hornsey. RF: Did your family have any connection with the business you ultimately entered? RWB: None whatsoever, no history of it in the family. RF: Was it an ambition on your part or was it an accidental entry eventually into films? How did you come into the business? RWB: I was fairly lucky in that I knew exactly what I wanted to do or at least I thought I did. At the age of something like fourteen I’d had rather a chequered upbringing in an educa- tional sense and lived in a lot of different places. I had been taken to see silent movies when I was a child It was obviously premature because usually I was carried out in scream- ing hysterics. There was one famous one called The Chess Player which was very dramatic and German and all that. I had no feeling for films. I had seen one or two Charlie Chaplin films which people showed at children's parties in those days on a 16mm projector.

  • Introduction 1
    INTRODUCTION 1 INTRODUCTION Introduction: The present study tries to analyze and interpret the select novels of Eric Clifford Ambler in the context of the concept of Thriller or Thriller fiction. Eric Ambler is one of the most prominent authors of the twentieth century British Literature. He is considered as ‘the Master of Thriller Fiction’, who has produced a number of best thriller novels in his lifetime. His novels focus on contemporary social realities: a crime, robbery, murder, assassination, blackmailing, serial killer, drug-smuggling, spy or detection, and war. He depicts photographic representation of his era and milieu which include dirty, dingy, war-shadowed, industrial Europe in the modem period. Eric Ambler tries to depict fictional world in his novels. He reflects the real world which includes crooked businessmen and financiers, dmg dealers, pimps and gun-mnners, criminal gangs, a world of espionage, assassination, moral and political decay. His major characters are real people with proper jobs: writers, journalists, teachers, scientists, lawyers, and engineers who unconsciously entangle in the world of violence and danger. They go from the strange situation to fight against such kind of immoral things in the society. Indeed, they are ordinary people who come from different parts of the society. They are ordinary citizens who involve accidentally or sometimes s' innocently in the national or international intrigues. His villains are not real people, but the actual kind of people, who generate violence in the society. s' Through these characters, he tries to show two faces of the human being that are good and evil existed in human nature in the world.
