Bus Stop Gallery

“Ken Alexander stitches this all together with his customary smooth direction... on a set by Charles Cusick Smith which looks as if it might have just stepped out of an Edward Hopper painting... at the very end, in a beautiful and haunting finalimage... you get a whisper of the tragedy which lurks beneath the surface.”

Robert Dawson Scott, The Times
