“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

'So Long At The Fair' (1950)
Looks like a romance from the poster but it isn't. I saw this as a youngster when I was off school sick and remembered it being quite intriguing but not much more, so when I saw it was on Talking Pictures channel I thought I'd give it another go 40 years later.
The premise is that a young woman and her brother go to the 1889 World Fair in Paris. They check into a hotel but next morning there's no sign of the brother, what she thought was his room is actually a bathroom, and no-one in the hotel has any recollection or record of him.
It's all pretty well-done, and with good acting. The French people all speak in French with no subtitles, which is pretty daring, but it's only schoolboy level so you can still get the gist of it. Worth a watch when it comes round again.
