Director: John Newland
Release Date: March 1970
On 14 August 1969 the Runcorn Weekly News reported that ‘The title of the MGM suspense drama “Hush-a-bye” has been changed to “Don’t you cry”, producer Wilber Stark announced in London recently.’ The report added that this ‘colour, widescreen film’ had ‘completed principal photography’ and ‘been brought in under budget’. Later, at some unknown date, the film was renamed, a second time, to My Lover, My Son. However, the film seems impossible to find in a good print or a print featuring the credits.
Capture 1
Perhaps a good quality print might identify this scene featuring a prostitute, presumably in Soho, where the lamppost sports the City of Westminster livery.
Capture 2
Another fuzzy image which may be Annabel's Club, in the basement of 44 Berkeley Square, where Dennis Waterman meets Patricia Brake.
Capture 3
As Waterman escorts Brake to her Chelsea houseboat home the image, featuring Battersea Bridge, looks more like a James McNeill Whistler painting than a still from a film.
