Bon Voyage   

Director: Alfred Hitchcock
Running Time: 30 minutes  
UK 1944


On his return from Hollywood in 1944, this was the first of two propaganda films Hitchcock made for the Ministry of Information, for use solely as propaganda tools for the French Resistance.

The story of a Scottish RAF air gunner who has escaped from a POW camp only to discover all is not as it seems  Reminiscent of Hitchcock’s later games with perception in Vertigo.

No English versions were made at the time.
