thiago S @Thiagostone Jun 15, 2026 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more

Steve B @RT36942293 Nov 27, 2025 For most of this movie we are left wondering about the singular issue. Is there a "Bunny Lake" or is mom crazy? Did someone kidnap her. Carol Lynley as the mom never tips us off. She could be delusional, but she is so adamant and recalls all the non-verified details of the day. Of course, Laurence Olivier is in total control of the screen when investigating the case. And who was that other guy. Was he actually the lead in " 2001 A Space Odessey" ?. All were great. Tight great script, that leaves us hanging, until the end. A total let down. Not so much in the resolution but in how the resolution comes to be discovered. I thought I had drifted into one of those late 1960's acid trip sequences. See more

Mark B @Thelaser555 Sep 30, 2025 It takes its time to get into full swing and Noel Coward, as the seedy landlord does his best to act as a distracting sideshow-, but once the movie shifts a few gears, it's electrifying and better than some of the similar Hitchcock films. You really feel for the single mother played by Carol Lynley, who no one wants to take seriously, about her missing child, Bunny. But then all along, I suspected the brother. Always in the right place at the wrong time. Laurence Olivier's safe pair of hands does a marvelous Supt Newhouse who pieces it all together- and only just in time. Taught and highly believable, this is an ahead of its time little masterpiece. See more

David K @RT61474040 Aug 20, 2025 Throughout this film I kept thinking, Keir Dullea is awful. Carol Lynley is over the top. And, in the beginning, Noel Coward steals every scene he's in. But, the film has a way of working itself out and is well worth the watch if not just a tad funky. See more

Brian M @RT45519128 Aug 5, 2025 I would give the first 3/4 of this movie 5 stars without any reservations, as it cleverly and effectively maintained my interest in the mystery. But the plot twist was underwhelming and too convenient, and what happens from there is borderline goofy. One of the most disappointing endings I can remember following such a skillful buildup. Still, it’s worth a watch. See more

Claudio C @Claudio666 Jul 30, 2025 Bunny Lake Is Missing (1965) Intriguing and Mysterious Thriller (11,865 – 30 Jul 2025 – by Claudio Carvalho) The American single mother Ann Lake (Carol Lynley) seeks out someone in the nursery Little People's Garden School in Hampstead. She finds a German cook and explains that she has just moved from the United States to London and she left her daughter Bunny Lake at the First Day Room alone with a baby. Now she needs to receive the delivery men at the apartment she rented, and she needs to leave Bunny for a few minutes. The cook says that she can check on her daughter. When Ann returns, she does not find neither the cook nor Bunny and no one in the nursery seems to have seen the girl. Ann calls her brother Steven Lake (Keir Dullea) and the police. Superintendent Newhouse (Laurence Olivier) investigates the case with his men and there is no evidence of the little girl. Soon he begins to question whether Bunny Lake does exist or is Ann's imaginary daughter. "Bunny Lake Is Missing" is an intriguing and mysterious thriller directed by Otto Preminger. The screenplay keeps the mystery and the tension until the end, when the viewer discovers the truth about Bunny Lake. The black and white cinematography is beautiful, and the film shows the English rock band The Zombies in a television broadcast. My vote is eight. Title (Brazil): Not available on DVD or Blu-Ray.
