The Boy Who Turned Yellow and The Glitter Ball

A double-bill of favourites from the Children's Film Foundation collection. In Glitterball, directed by Harley Cokliss (Empire Strikes Back), two boys befriend a stranded alien in the shape of a little silver ball and help it to return home. The last completed work by the legendary Powell and Pressburger, The Boy who turned Yellow tells the story of John who turns yellow one day while travelling on the Underground! Meeting a yellow man who travels via electricity, John has to team up with him to rescue his lost mouse from the Tower of London.
