Advantages: Amusing script, that's memory lasts longer than the story itself Disadvantages: Quirky British movie that has become a cult hit.
...very good film. And as Bunny Lake Is Missing has quite the cult following you can pretty much guarantee that the remake movie will be near on awful. But that's for tomorrow; today you can have the genuine article with its quirky characters; which I'm not sure a re-make will be able to deliver.

...on to the review of Bunny Lake Is Missing.
The story begins when Ann Lake(Carol Lynley), an American relocated in England, arrives to drop her daughter Bunny at a nursery school. She leaves Bunny in the care of a cook(Lucie Mannehiem) when no teachers are present.
When Ann returns, the cook has quit and Bunny is missing. The other employees deny seeing the child and Ann turns to her brother Stephen(Keir Dullea) for help. Ann never had a father ... ...her little girl's disappearance.
Bunny Lake Is Missing is an amazing work to view. The characters were intresting.Oliver's Newhouse never becomes boring. Keir Dullea as Stephen appears sinister. But Lynley playing the tortured Ann Lake who shied away from males becomes a main staple in this psychological thriller.
I recommend seeing this mesmerizing thriller on video or DVD. ...
