Cry Wolf is a 1969 British film for the Children's Film Foundation directed by John Davis and starring Janet Munro and Ian Hendry.[1] [2] It concerns two children Tony and Mary, who discover a plot to kidnap the prime minister.[3]
This was the final film of actress Janet Munro.
The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "Something of a variation on the usual Children's Film Foundation productions in that the villains are played straight: This certainly makes for greater plausibility, and despite some inconsistency in the playing and a rather feeble attempt af comedy, there is ample compensation in Judy Cornwell's splendid villainess and the suspense is quite effectively sustained."[4]
