"The Runner" was perhaps the first of the post-revolution Iranian films to attract worldwide attention.

The film has been celebrated for presenting an authentic image of the encounter with modernity in Iranian cinema. Plot Synopsis. Orphan Amiro lives near the seaport. Picking up the bottles, he gives them to his gaffer. Moreover, his bosom friend Moussa also picks bottles for a living. As Amiro eats on the seabank with Moussa, they both want to sail the ship into the sea. In his heart, Amiro wants to flee by ship or plane. He joins a group of boys to pick up floating bottles. They all gather and count bottles. Afterwards, another boy comes up to Amiro and pushes him hard while claiming that he stole his bottles. They fight, and the boy claims ownership of two bottles.

While There is Still Time
While There is Still Time is a 1943 short Australian dramatised documentary about Australian soldiers during World War II directed by Charles Chauvel. It was the second in a series of films produced by the Austerity Loan Campaign. Premise. A young woman, Gracie, is bored with her factory work and dissatisfied with war life. Her soldier boyfriend, Jim, is blinded while fighting overseas, and writes her a letter which inspires Gracie and her workmates to make sacrifices and win the war. Production. The film was known during production as "Five Minutes to Midnight". Reception. "The Sydney Morning Herald" called it:
A first-class production. This is easily the most impressive, most gripping locally-made documentary yet screened here. Its message is the memory it leaves, more than its brief, indirect request for the support of the austerity loan. Mr. Chauvel has most effectively clothed propaganda with compelling drama. As it should, the film will make many uncomfortable. Every one of its thirteen minutes is vibrant with quiet domestic realism and the humorous and tragic notes of its brief, but very boiling, Libyan episode... The film has as its theme the routing of selfishness by the recogni-tion of sacrifice. Its implications cut deep, and the narrative, poignant and very convincing, will leave none un-moved, for the film has an emotional quality rare in Australian productions. Acted by some of our most natural screen players, it gives newcomer Noala Warren the leading role, which she plays with astonishing poise and ability. The Brisbane Telegraph said Chauvel "made it well".

Question: Who was the director of While There is Still Time?
Answer: Charles Chauvel, Charles Edward Chauvel

The Night Has Eyes
The Night Has Eyes, released in the United States as Terror House by Producers Releasing Corporation and re-released in the US by Cosmopolitan Pictures in 1949 as Moonlight Madness, is a 1942 British thriller film directed by Leslie Arliss starring James Mason, Joyce Howard, Wilfrid Lawson, Mary Clare. and Tucker McGuire. It is based on the 1939 novel of the same title by Alan Kennington. Plot. Two young female teachers travel to the Yorkshire Moors where their friend had disappeared a year before, and it is not long before they encounter a man they believe to be her murderer. That night, a violent storm breaks out, and they become stranded in the house where they are staying. Critical reception. Leonard Maltin called the film an "OK mystery"; Allmovie called it a "taut British chiller"; and "TV Guide" wrote "though melodramatic and soundstage-bound, "Terror House" is still quite effective and eerie. Fog covers almost every exterior; cinematographer Gunther Krampf spent long periods getting the artificial fog at just the right density...The final film was almost too effective, and after initially getting an A rating from the British censor and being booked on the biggest cinema circuit in Britain, the rating was suddenly changed to H (for "Horrific"), making it off-limits for anyone under 16 years of age. The big circuits had a policy of showing only A films, so the independent cinemas became the big winners, getting an excellent thriller starring Mason, Britain's top leading man at the time."
