Patzer
When Paul visits the Tarrants he gives the teacup back to Bert, but in the next frame when Bert opens the front door for Paul his hands are empty.

Zitate
Paul Banner: Look, Judy, I don't know the object of this visitation, but I would like to point out that it's one o'clock in the morning and that your husband might conceivably misconstrue the purity of your motives.
Judy: What a pompous little speech, darling. Can I have a cigarette?

Not ready for prime time

It's obvious why this British crime drama wasn't released in America - poor cast, poorer screenplay, and a final reel that is ridiculous on all levels. Even at just an hour of running time, the feature is padded with many scenes that go nowhere.

I was surprised at the favorable reviews in IMDb, given how little happens here. The bland hero played by Paul Carpenter (an unremarkable journeyman actor) gets beaten up twice -that's about all the action that occurs. His juggling two girlfriends is boring, and the low production values resemble a PRC or Monogram picture of a decade earlier.

I've enjoyed several exploitation movies directed by Charles Saunders, including "Womaneater" and "Nudist Paradise" and he made one classic film in 1944: "Tawny Pipit" (which I saw revived at MoMA -very highly recommended), but this one displays zero effort.
