Pocket notebook sighting:
The Small Back Room


[The Small Back Room (dir. Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger, 1949). Click for a larger view.]

Sammy (David Farrar) wonders why he and Sue (Kathleen Byron) “trouble to come out at all.” She suggests that they start “an economy campaign” and “stay in for a few weeks.” Sammy checks his datebook: “Hello, I say, our last economy campaign’s not finished yet.” It’s all a little hard to understand without the rest of the movie.
