BFI’s restoration of Anthony Asquith’s tale of love, jealousy and murder on the Northern line, with an orchestral score by Neil Brand.

We celebrate the 150th anniversary of the London Underground with the BFI’s restoration of Asquith’s tale of love, jealousy and murder. Neil Brand’s orchestral score, recorded live last year, perfectly complements the film’s rich evocation of 1920s London.

Following the screening composer Neil Brand, Archive curators Bryony Dixon and Ben Thompson, and Simon Murphy, Curator, London Transport Museum, will discuss, with chair Francine Stock (BBC Radio 4), the score, the restoration and the history of the Underground. The restoration of Underground was made possible by the generous support of Simon W Hessel.
