Directed by John Guillermin, 1960. This first-class thriller follows Richard Todd’s salesman, whose quest to recover his stolen car leads him to a brutal London gang, led by a cast-against-type Peter Sellers. Its brassy precision is enhanced by John Barry’s score and fast, riotous cuts. Part of the series Great Expectations: British Postwar Cinema, 1945 – 1960. Screening on film.
