This edition of Composing Cinema focuses on the giant of British film composistion John Barry, and his score for Bryan Forbes's masterful Séance on a Wet Afternoon. The screening will be introduced by Oscar-nominated composer Gary Yershon.

Richard Attenborough and Nanette Newman star in Bryan Forbes’ stylish psychological thriller about a medium who plans to kidnap a child and help the police solve the crime to bolster her claims of clairvoyance.

Attenborough won a Bafta for his performance as the impressionable Billy Savage, while the film is also notable for its rare lead performance from acclaimed theatre and television actor Kim Stanley, who wouldn’t make another film appearance until Frances in 1982.
