Canadian con artist Paul Gregory (George Nader) busts out of a London jail and goes after the loot he's stashed away. Unfortunately, his partner has already decided to keep it all for himself. An accidental death sends Paul on the run, and he finds himself alienated from his underground connections, sought by the police and seemingly without hope. But then he meets a young socialite (Maggie Smith) who cannot resist his allure and decides to help him on his dangerous flight to freedom.

But [Maggie] Smith, in particular, is excellent, adding an edge of humanity to a cold and cruel story.  Go to Full Review

Aldo G 12/13/2024 Well executed British Film noir. See more 06/22/2017 Noir fans will relish this little-known minor masterwork by first time director Seth Holt. The director was a former editor who deftly uses that skill to structure a well told story of a crook whose perfect crime goes awry. Maggie Smith is luminous in her first screen role. George Nader carries the lead role well and maybe could have been a bigger film star had the studio system not been leery of his sexual orientation. Dizzy Reece's jazz score is another reason to enjoy this film. See more 06/17/2017 Great movie. Con man doesn't trust anyone, leading to his downfall and death. Maggie Smith movie debut.
