Bunny Lake Is Missing (1965). Peculiar melodrama about an American girl who has just come to live in London, and whose young daughter Bunny disappears from her nursery school. Nobody at the school remembers having seen Bunny, and people begin to question whether the child actually exists. Laurence Olivier is the rather lackadaisical detective who investigated Bunny’s disappearance, and Noel Coward is her creepy landlord. A very weird story with a highly improbable climax. If Laurence Olivier had been an even halfway competent detective, the thing could have been wrapped un an hour earlier (and I wish it had been).
