For cast associates in “Ministry of Fear”, Ray has lovely Marjcrie Reynolds, svelte Hillary Brocke, handsome Carl Esmond and such central figures of the plot as P Waram, Alan Napier and Er- skine Sanford, The reason for this.film's success, previewers state, is the uncertain- ty of what will happen next. In fact, it's difficult ta perceive who are R enemies and who are not. . WARNING!!
