Laurence Olivier's unforgettable acting anchors these two productions from 1950s British radio series Theatre Royal, one adapted from an Honore de Balzac tale and the other from Alexandre Dumas. Both stories involve games of chance, but while one ends on a sweet note, the other goes quite sour. Classic British actors enliven the production in supporting roles, and the taut, tension-filled stories are likely to linger in your mind long after the closing credits. Lovers of old-fashioned radio dramas will find all the joys of a classic theatre production in a more portable format.
