Saturday, Aug. 31 - Back Street & One Step Beyond: Encounter

Back Street (1932)

A piece of propaganda directed to the poor woman who Believes herself to be hopelessly in love with a swine. The 1932 version.

One Step Beyond (1959–1961): Encounter (Season 2 | Episode 29 - aired 12 April 1960)

A pilot radios that he is seeing inexplicable things in the air, when suddenly his signal is cut off and there is no more communication from him. Concerned that he has crashed, his coworkers want to launch a search. But the boss, a rather cold unfeeling type, only spares one aircraft for the search. Later, the wife of the missing man appears and demands to know why more isn't being done.

Days later, the wrecked plane is found, covered with a strange wispy stuff that resembles "angel hair". Shortly after being touched, the stuff disappears without a trace.

Finally, many miles away, the missing man turns up. Injured and unable to recall what happened. The people caring for him call in the details and when the "rescue" team arrives they find that the pilot has died. The only thing remaining as a clue to what happened is the original radio message sent before the pilot and plane went missing.
