Sexual content?? Huh? Was that the hair-pulling thing or what? (Or cuz I said the word "k*nky"?) Weird. Then again, it could have been one of those ads up top or something; they change regularly, so that'd explain why it wouldn't let you in one moment and then let you in the next.
Oh, yes, please do post what you find. Thanks!
Speaking of that whistle, did you notice Emlyn does almost the exact same thing in "Hatter's Castle"?
And another thing ... how could I forget (I'm sorry, but Emlyn Williams really fogs up the screen for me in JI!) ... speaking of curly hair, that's another of my favorite RN features, even though you so rarely get to see it in its natural state. (The only examples I can think of off-hand now are "Odd Man Out" and "Henry V.") It's too bad men practically glued their hair down back then. My sister, the old-movie buff, told me that, in the style of that day, if a man had curly hair, it signified he was gay, kind of like which ear you wear your earring in does today ... that's why Peter Lorre had curly hair in "The Maltese Falcon." Back then, she said, that was a subtle but dead giveaway to audiences about the character. (And I'm told he was more explicitly gay in the book.)
