was demonstrating them in his portrayal of Myatt. This was Michael Shelden's view in his "prosecutional and problematic" Graham Greene: The Man Within (1994). For David Pearce, however, "Anti-Semitism is not Greene. It is society in 1932." He also quotes Maria Aurora Couto, who interviewed Greene in 1980. "Myatt is the underdog and the outsider, and a character treated with great sympathy. I interpret these [early] novels as an attack upon capitalism rather than against the Jewish race, or religion." Adaptations Two films were adapted from Greene's novel: The 1934 Orient Express and the BBC TV adaptation 1962 Stamboul Train. The author was dismissive of both. "This film manufactured from my book came last and was far and away the worst [of several others on the same theme], although not so bad as a later television production by the BBC." Two versions were also written for radio. Shelden Stark's Orient Express was broadcast in the CBS Escape series on 19 February 1949. This was only a half-hour drama very approximately based on the novel. Its American businessman narrator is Myatt, while Czinner, whom he rescues from death, is a naturalised US citizen. Jeremy Front's ninety-minute Stamboul Train was broadcast by BBC Radio 4 on 18 November 2017.
