Editorial Review:
When Ann Lake (Carol Lynley The Poseidon Adventure) goes to pick up four-year-old Bunny at her new preschool in London she s told that no child by that name is enrolled there! Superintendent Newhouse (Lawrence Olivier Hamlet Academy Award® Best Actor of 1948The Boys From Brazil) of Scotland Yard is assigned to the case. His suspects include: Steven Lake (Keir Dullea 2001: A Space Odyssey) the child s protective uncle; Horatio Wilson (Noel Coward The Italian Job 1969) the Lake s decadent landlord; and Aida Ford (Martita Hunt Anastasia) the school s eccentric ex-headmistress but he soon learns that no one has actually seen the child and there is absolutely no proof that Bunny ever existed! Ann maintains the child s been kidnapped but Newhouse begins to suspect that the hysterical young woman may just be insane.System Requirements:Running Time: 107 Min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: MYSTERY/SUSPENSE Rating: NR UPC: 043396094666 Manufacturer No: 09466

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Not your average psychological thriller
I first saw this film in a bad TV print 30 years ago. Despite the drawbacks of seeing it on a tiny set without the benefit even of pan-and-scan, it made an indelible impression on me. Yes, the holes in the plot and lapses of logic to which other reviewers allude looked obvious, and a major character's behavioral change in the last act seemed improbable. But I couldn't shake the film, and it stayed with me.
I was puzzled that a film with such apparent shortcomings could affect me so deeply. ... Read More
Rating: - The ending may be over the top, but getting there is a collection of pleasures to savor
"Do you know what this is?" asks the cook at the Little People's Garden School as she ladles a white liquid into bowl after bowl.
"Why, it looks like junket," says Ann Lake, who arrived minutes before to deliver her little girl, Bunny, to the nursery school.
"It not only looks like junket, it is junket...junket is junket. And no matter what you do with it, it still tastes like swill and swallows like slime."
This exchange is one of the many pleasures of Otto Preminger's Bunny ... Read More
Rating: - Just Out of Reach
Preminger always has something going on, though at the time of its release many of his fans were shocked at his decision to pull back from the big "super-pictures" he had been making for years, each analyzing and recreating a different social structure (the Catholic Cjurch in THE CARDINAL, the Zionist movement in EXODUS, Congress in ADVISE AND CONSENT, etc) to make a black and white psycho thriller with a decidedly smaller budget and a trim cast. As I look at the picture now, however, I see it as roughly ... Read More
Rating: - A Hitchcockian, first class mystery
This suspenseful, underrated classic directed by Otto Preminger is filled with many unexpected plot twists as well as unexpectedly convincing acting (Keir Dullea in particular). The movie is about an American brother (Steve) and sister (Anne) who have just moved to England. Anne has a young daughter, Bunny, who Steve enrolls in a local preschool. It is when Anne goes to pick up Bunny that the madness begins. Bunny can be found nowhere by teachers or policemen and there is no record of her existence, even at ... Read More
Rating: - Bunny Lake is Missing is a missing psycholical thriller
In 1965 Otto Preminger produced a now forgotten movie - Bunny Lake Is
Missing. I first saw this film in 2005, or so, and wonder why I had not
ever heard of this psychological thriller before. Bunny Lake was filmed in black and white and portrays the city of London in a dark gray and black moodiness which enhances the story of a missing child and a frantic mother trying to find her. There are effective portrayals here by since deceased actors - Laurence Olivier, Martita Hunt and a special appearance ... Read More
