The Lodger: A Story of the London Fog

A young man who gives his name as Jonathan Drew (Ivor Novello) is looking for a room, and on a foggy night in London he finds one at the Bunting family's guest house. A killer is working the city, murdering young blond women after dark, and Mrs. Bunting (Marie Ault) and her daughter Daisy (June Tripp) are living with that fear. Hitchcock keeps the new lodger mostly out of sight upstairs, and Drew stays a stranger with nothing to say for himself.
