A showgirl's baby has an adventure with brigands.

A behind-the-scenes GPO Film Unit documentary (directed by Stuart Legg) that races from studio rehearsals and newsrooms to control rooms and transmitters, weaving speeches, music, and outside broadcasts—featuring voices like H. G. Wells and Ramsay MacDonald—into a kinetic portrait of how the BBC’s national “voice” is made.

Father Brown is only too happy to interfere with the work of the police in solving tricky criminal cases, usually with resounding success. That's why the clergyman is transferred to a sleepy island called Abbott's Rock. At first, nothing happens there, but somehow Father Brown seems to be attracted to crime: Soon a gang of thieves is up to no good on the island. So Brown makes the headlines again, and is punitively transferred once more. This time he finds himself in a quiet Irish millionaire community.

Father Brown starts solving crimes, much to the annoyance of his housekeeper, the police and especially his bishop, who is not amused by a priest playing detective.

Works of art are disappearing, stolen by a master thief, a master of disguise. Father Brown has two goals: to catch the thief and to save his soul.

Based on the play 'Magic' by G.K Chesterton. A conjurer, feeling cornered by a hostile audience, turns an evening of simple parlor magic into a night of madness by performing one last trick. How does he do it? That is the grand question.

A classic mystery based on "The Face in the Target" story by G.K. Chesterton.

A Manhattan priest with a penchant for solving crimes goes to the aid of a young actress. She is becoming enmeshed in a series of bizarre incidents she can't explain, and her complaints to the police have gone ignored.

THE MAN WHO WAS THURSDAY is inspired by the existentialist novel of the same name by G.K. Chesterton (1908). The novel is considered a metaphysical thriller, and our film could be considered the same, though it also can be thought of in more classical cinematic terms a psychological and supernatural thriller.

In this atmospheric adaptation of G.K. Chesterton’s clever story, Professor Smail is haunted by an ominous presence, threatening his life over the professor’s ancient relic of a golden cross. It is up to Father Brown to uncover the mystery--is the curse real, or is it the fabrications of a madman?

Spiritual medium Openshaw is so removed from real life that he confuses a military alarm with a signal from the other world. Father Brown returns the professor to reality and the problems of modern life. Based on the "The Blast of the Book" short story from "The Scandal of Father Brown" stories collection, written in 1935 by Gilbert K. Chesterton.
