the boy who turned yellow (1972)

"Yellow plague hits London, wow!"
John (Mark Dightam) looses his pet mouse whist on a school trip to the Tower of London. Back at school his inattention due to worry he is sent home, and whilst on underground an accident turning all of the passengers yellow. He then finds out that it is due to the alien Nick (Robert Eddison), who lives on electricity, and shows John that he has newly found powers, which he uses to rescue his mouse...but was it all a dream.
Powell and Pressburger bring their twist to this children's production.
