The four versions of the 39 Steps are all worth watching and enjoyable. This one excels in that it is set in the period of the novel. However, Hitchcock uses humor as well suspense, which, overall, makes it, in my opinion, the best version of all. (The Big Ben scene in the 1978 version feels very much like the Mount Rushmore scene in North by Northwest or the Statue of Liberty scene in Saboteur.)

It is a bit different from the Hitchcock version, but IMO this interpretation of "the 39 steps" makes a tiny bit more sense than in the earlier version ... even though both dont really make total sense. The music seems a bit off and "too happy" though, for a man that is fearing for his life while on the run from dangerous agents that kill easily.

This version is not only different from the two other films but also different from the book, albeit it is closer to the book than not. It is an interesting film but I didn't like the portrayal of Hannay . Instead of being a good humored, patriotic chap who gets caught up in intrigue and succeeds in showing his quality, Robert Powell acts suspicious and selfish right from the start.

I've always enjoyed this film, but I have one question/issue. What is the villains' plan with Big Ben? How is this going to achieve the assassination of the the Greek PM? The film doesn't contain any dialog explaining the connection. The two devices are intended to do exactly what?
@catchasmurf762
Жыл бұрын
yes I was wondering that as well. I would imagine that due to the technology of the period, there would have to have been some kind of detonation device with a analogue timing mechanism. The timing would have been very important for their exact plans, making sure Karilodes was in position and coordinating with the escape plan. By using Big Ben's belfry, the are able to conceal the location of this device inside a very heavily-guarded Westminster, and have a time piece readily available in the clock there as well.

I like this version. I am well aware of the changes made to Buchan but for me they work such as Scudder in the station but more importantly St Stephen’s Tower and Robert Powell is a good Richard Hannay and David Warner makes a great villain and John Mills benefits any film. Also features Ronald Pickup as a henchman.

It's not a bad effort, certainly better than the Kenneth More version. If you're a railway buff though, it's a tad cringeworthy with myriad mistakes everywhere. They should have filmed it on the Great Central rather than the Severn Valley for a start - at least it would have been the correct area and more realistic infrastructure.

It cracks me up that a cast member in this movie had played Jesus recently at that time
Love this movie. Haven't seen it in 40 years. I love how it was 11:45 my time during the climatic scene in the clock.
A really good film and certainly the best of the three versions made imo.

There are at least four. The last one I saw was make in 2008!
London of my youth - skyscraper and 'London Eye' free! Lovely old version of a classic story 🙂
Utterly brilliant movie. One of my all time faves!
I love this film... many thanks.
The version which most closely follows Buchan's novel; with it's period setting. Definitely my favourite. Real 'Boys Own Adventure'
I've watched all The 39 Steps films, all entertaining, but I think this is the best one.
Thank you for uploading! Wonderful film.
17:30 this part onward is the best portion of the movie. Love listening to the distance chimes of Big Ben in the distance and you never know what will happen. The Westminister Quarters make all the more reason to keep watching this movie. Big Ben is an icon of British history and an Icon of London. It seems everything was good around the clock.
definitely the best version of the story.
Thank you, I've been meaning to watch this for ages. I dimly remembered it from the past, although a different production. This one was excellent with a top notch cast and production.
Thank you so much for that movie 🙂 my father took me to watch when it came out and I had fond memories of it 👍👍
1:24:53 the way they dashed for the clock was amazing once they figured it out
It must be the best adaptation of 39 steps ❤
John Mills and Samuel West in the opening scene. What a wonderful cast !
Super good ending on the clock!!! 😀
I love this film. All of the versions have their good points, but for me, this one takes the palm. Largely faithful to the book, a lovely score and the scenery is a feast for the eyes. Tried to buy it on DVD, but could only find the Region 2 edition, which won't play on a U.S. player. Thank you for posting this!

Unfortunately Robert Powell does not represent my imagination of Richard Hannay. Robert Donat or Kenneth More were better.

one of the very best I have ever seen.....Thanks for posting...
Wonderful film of the 39 steps, the very best version - most like John Buchan's original thriller.
I loved Robert Powell's turn as the wry, wise outsider/insider doctor in Shaka Zulu.
Great film.
It's a bit like "North by Northwest" (1959) with Cary Grant and Eve Marie Saint.
So good that it makes everyone think the ending was alway at big ben🎉
Brilliant film it was film as for Severn Valley Railway highly station l am watching this in Philippines making me terrible home sick
Karen Dotrice played the little girl in the Disney movies _The 3 Lives of Thomasina_ and _Mary Poppins._

More than a few winks to N by NW, and not only the plane chase !
Thank you for your sharing🙏
This is up there among some other greats of which one is of my favs.. rouge male (peter O'toole)
I had forgotten David Warner was in this.
Interesting pre-echo of Warner as the sadistic Cardassian interrogator/reprogrammer of Picard in Star Trek NG a couple of decades (?) later.
My favorite version. Finally I can watch it again. I like the Kenneth moore version as well but I think each is different and adaptive to the time it was shot.happy you. Thanks for the upload.
The four versions of the 39 Steps are all worth watching and enjoyable. This one excels in that it is set in the period of the novel. However, Hitchcock uses humor as well suspense, which, overall, makes it, in my opinion, the best version of all. (The Big Ben scene in the 1978 version feels very much like the Mount Rushmore scene in North by Northwest or the Statue of Liberty scene in Saboteur.)
Wonderful movie but slow at first, then it quickly gets much, much better. RS. Canada
EXCELENTE.
Very suspenseful
Awesome movie!!! LOVE the cast, especially Robert Powell and David Warner!
Lol. I'm sure someone would have Robert Powell's 70s perm-fro in the 1930s. 🤣🤣🤣
Any chance to find this in french or VOSTFR ?
34:22 *Emergency brake pull* , "WHO IN THE BLAZES APPLIED THAT EMERGENCY BRAKE?!"
I watched it it was a good movie to
I love this movie
It's unreasonable that Hannay unloaded Colonel's pistol
Robert Powell is a great actor he should have received far more recognition but I think he was just too well balanced to mess with all the hype.
I know BUT THATS THE YEAR THAT MY MOM WAS BORN
Most of us 😮 Host of us 🤔 POST OFFICE 🏤 😅
Masyadong suspenseful.but good wins in the end.thanks.
It is a bit different from the Hitchcock version, but IMO this interpretation of "the 39 steps" makes a tiny bit more sense than in the earlier version ... even though both dont really make total sense. The music seems a bit off and "too happy" though, for a man that is fearing for his life while on the run from dangerous agents that kill easily.
Good version but all the versions, offer unique perspectives
Karen Dotrice, Jane banks from 1964 Mary poppins 😊

This version is not only different from the two other films but also different from the book, albeit it is closer to the book than not. It is an interesting film but I didn't like the portrayal of Hannay . Instead of being a good humored, patriotic chap who gets caught up in intrigue and succeeds in showing his quality, Robert Powell acts suspicious and selfish right from the start.

This had the most formidable enemy , really nasty pieces , did u see that knee capping . 25:32 .
She must not have been to fond of her fiance. In the end she's waltzing off with Hannay like nothing ever happened, lol.
A very enjoyable film, thank you, but - be honest - the ending was a bit silly!
This has very little to do with the Hitchcock version or the 1959 version but it is still a good watch
Pity the end went pear shaped
Had David Warner in the back of the Cab.

I've always enjoyed this film, but I have one question/issue. What is the villains' plan with Big Ben? How is this going to achieve the assassination of the the Greek PM? The film doesn't contain any dialog explaining the connection. The two devices are intended to do exactly what?
@catchasmurf762
Жыл бұрын
yes I was wondering that as well. I would imagine that due to the technology of the period, there would have to have been some kind of detonation device with a analogue timing mechanism. The timing would have been very important for their exact plans, making sure Karilodes was in position and coordinating with the escape plan. By using Big Ben's belfry, the are able to conceal the location of this device inside a very heavily-guarded Westminster, and have a time piece readily available in the clock there as well.

Why didn’t the authorities simply cancel the Greek PM knowing he was the assassination target? A bit basic to my mind! Movie might have been a bit dull if they had I guess!
historical note:- this film is set in the era immediately preceding WW1 but the type of monoplane hunting Hannay did not appear until after the start of the war.

@@timgrice7765 Oh come on! That monoplane was a lot more convincing than the SE5a in the 2006 BBC version.
Robert Powell seems to be a very versetile actor. I'm sure I have seen him in a few Hammer productions.I think he would have made a very good 60s james bond.
Liked the Kenneth Moore version and the comedic scene whre he gives a science lesson at the all girl's school and there was a version probably produced by PBS where much of the comedy has to do with Women's rights.
When I seen Robert Powell in this film🤔I said jesus😂
An enjoyable romp and my second favorite version after the Hitchcock version
Ridiculous. He could have shoved the rifle out and stopped big ben without all the palaver of climbing out on the clock. Pathetic.
I like this version. I am well aware of the changes made to Buchan but for me they work such as Scudder in the station but more importantly St Stephen’s Tower and Robert Powell is a good Richard Hannay and David Warner makes a great villain and John Mills benefits any film. Also features Ronald Pickup as a henchman.
The train is a sad anachronism. All post 1950 engine and carriages. On the Severn Valley Railway.
This started off sort of well then someone took leave of their senses. Why the fu*ck can't the clowns stick to the book - it was a thriller not a hammer house of horror farce!!!

13:00 if the beastly huns are ransacking his gaffe why doesn't he just send for the Bow Street Runners? 43:50 Posh totty is gagging for it.
the lack of lighting at the start is just awful ..what is this netflix as 150dpi?
They should make a modern version of this film, but also title it the 39 steps.
1:35:42 1:36:13
It's not a bad effort, certainly better than the Kenneth More version. If you're a railway buff though, it's a tad cringeworthy with myriad mistakes everywhere. They should have filmed it on the Great Central rather than the Severn Valley for a start - at least it would have been the correct area and more realistic infrastructure.
