You haven’t put that in any of your films yet? But one of them couldn’t help make a joke she had to call out, she said, don’t you want any bread with it? I remember at a fairground once outside London there was a sideshow going on in a tent where a man was biting the heads from live rats and there were two women, blousy sort of women at the back of the tent, watching this scene with fascination but with clenched teeth and horror. Whether it’s for their own relief or what. But actually I don’t think it really matters and sometimes people can’t help, especially certain types of English people, can’t help but make a joke. I think a lot of people object to playing around with bodies and so forth. I think the British have a sense of humor especially about the macabre. The young one said, hardly seems worthwhile going home, does it? A rather brash young comedian, just as the coffin was being lowered into the grave, leaned over to him and said, how old are you Charlie? And this old, old comedian said, oh, he said, I’m 89. At the graveside were all his fellow comedians including one very old man named Charles Coburn. Why not? Which reminds me of a story I think it was a famous comedian, Harry Tate, English comedian died, and was being buried. Well, yes, I believe after all there’s humor in a graveyard. You mentioned the relieving the suspense and I think one of the marks of your films is the wry touches of humor that you inject to relieve the… Eventually I let the bomb go off two minutes after it should’ve gone off and blew the boy and everybody else to bits, and this was a horrifying experience especially for women in the audience. I built up the time element of when the bomb was to go off and I even went past the time when the bomb should go off. I did a picture called Saboteur, Sabotage, I beg your pardon, and I had a small boy carrying a bomb across London. You know I once made the error of putting suspense into a picture and not relieving it. If a roller coaster didn’t take that curve so easily and went right over the top that would be the end of that. After all they go on a roller coaster and scream. I think audiences like to feel a little touch of fear. We all have fear in us and we like to enjoy a vicarious, shall we say, toe in the water of fear. I think it’s probably because I’m very nervous fellow. Why have you made this your speciality right from the very beginning, I believe, isn’t it? Most of your films have had a sort of strong dose of peril in them for the characters. You know the audiences are still looking for the body. If I did a story or, say, a musical about Cinderella, they would be waiting for the body to turn up. I think the cobbler should stick to his last.
