And Soon the Darkness 1970 Directed by Robert Fuest

Surprisingly good Crime Thriller Whodunit (for me that is as I had never heard
of it) well made, well acted and with fine crisp cinematography by Ian Wilson.
The film takes place in northern France and the french countryside is shot in
blistering daylight.

Two British girls are on a bicycling vacation in France, a blonde, Cathy (Michele
Dotrice) and a brunette, Jane (Pamela Franklin). They're followed (or not) by a
a man on a scooter, Paul (Sandor Elès) who mourns his quite recently dead wife.
The girls pass endless cornfields and Cathy whines about how tired she is
and how boring it is. They quarrel and part their ways.

When Jane hears from a café proprietess (Hana Maria-Pravda) that the road is
BAD and has a reputation she returns and start looking for Cathy. But she is
nowhere to be seen and may have been taken, and whom if anybody can she
trust among the locals. Whodunit ?
