    Good Plot Point

    In London, the businessman James Nevill (Dane Clark) is the president of Amalgamated Industries and adores his wife Andrea (Thea Gregory). When he is betrayed by his uncle Cyrus McGowan (Howard Marion-Crawford) in a risky business that will bankrupt the company, he decides to force his former friend Paul Kirby (Paul Carpenter) to kill him so that Andrea receives a life insurance policy to have a good life. However Kirby refuses and devastated with the proposal, he drinks too much disclosing the request in public in his girlfriend´s bar. Out of the blue, James´ uncle changes his position and the business succeeds. James tries to find Kirby to call off their arrangement but does not locate him. After three attempts of murder, James suspects that Kirby is not who is trying to kill him.

    "Five Days", a.k.a. "Paid to Kill", is a film-noir by Hammer with a good plot point that may surprise the viewer. The cinematography is also great but the conclusion is disappointing. My vote is six.

    Title (Brazil): "Pago para Matar" ("Paid to Kill")

    Terrific plot for its time

    For the fifties decade, this plot was very surprising, inventive, exciting. Now, in 2023, we can say that this scheme has been used many times in many suspense thriller plots. Unfortunately, the ending is always more or less predictable. Nevertheless, this littme UK thriller remains outstanding, not very long, pullled by a stong acting and cast. As in many features of this period, some US actors were hired for British productions. I recommend this one for any thriller buff, no matter the B production standard. Keep in mind that a B movie is not necessarily a lousy one, on the contrary: a lesser budget permits many daring and offbeat stories. This one is the best example.

    Six Stars for Five Days.

    The next film covered by the "House of Hammer Podcast" was "Five Days" or "Paid to Kill", if you prefer. The version I watched was the one currently available on Youtube and there were some sound issues, at the start of the presentation particularly. The last few films have essentially been murder mysteries cloaked in different skins, so I liked this one for doing something different.

    James Nevill (Dane Clark) is a businessman managing a London based Investment firm. Having gone in big on a deal that goes sour, Nevill strikes a deal with an old friend Paul Kirby (Paul Carpenter), from shadier times, to kill him at some point in the next five days, so that is wife can collect on the insurance payment. However, the business deal undergoes a last-minute change and proceeds securing the finances of the firm going forward. Nevill tries to locate Kirby, to call off the deal but he is nowhere to be found. He must now try and find his friend and explain the situation before he finds him.

    A second film for Dane Clark, having been in "The Gambler and the Lady" which I watched last year and in which he co-starred with Anthony Forwood, who appears again in this one. I thought Clark was a bit better in that film though, where he portrayed a former gangster struggling in society circles, than he was here. There's a touch more nuance required for this one and I never really bought that Nevill loved his wife enough be so practically suicidal. He also seems to be pushing his wife to the possibility of moving on (with Forwood) after he's gone too, which again is a theme from an earlier Hammer film.

    The film is also notable for having Charles Hawtrey in a small non-speaking role.

    Whilst I wouldn't, in any way, describe "Five Days" as a lost gem, it was watchable enough to hold my attention, despite some less the great performances, and the arrival of a different plot was welcome.

    Paid to Kill - worth the money to see it

    Taking advantage of arrangements favoured by the UK's Eady levy (a state film subsidy established after the war) in 1950, American producer Robert Lippert formed a business alliance with Hammer studios. Under the agreement, Lippert would provide American acting talent - frequently shop-worn stars or just supporting actors who fancied a profitable trip out of the country - while Hammer would supply the rest of the cast and the production facilities. Together they would split the profits. Famous for his concern with the bottom line, Lippert produced over 140 films between 1946 and 1955, characteristically genre pieces such as I Shot Jesse James or Rocketship XM. For the British deal, most of the films were noir-ish thrillers -including 5 DAYS/ PAID TO KILL.

    Dane Clark appeared several times under the production arrangement, but makes one of his most successful entries here as a man in a jam, with a plan, and a dame. Possessing a characteristic persecuted look, Clark is eminently suited to the role of businessman James Nevill who - fearing that a big deal has gone sour - pays a friend to kill him, to secure insurance money for his unsuspecting wife. Nevill abruptly needs to change his murderous instructions when matters change for the better, but cannot find his unreliable friend. He finds the repeated attempts on his life - whoever it is making them - too close for comfort. Says a business acquaintance of Nevill's business style that: "it's okay for cutthroat and adventure - but not for the City of London." Such a contrast exists elsewhere in a film containing one or two jarring, humorous scenes, featuring Charles Hawtrey (a non-speaking part) partnering Nevill's troublesome, truculent investor. Away from these distractions the film is much stronger, notably in the understated love for Nevill shown by his secretary Joan (Cecile Chavreau), which is played subtly. Although for many the film's final twist is telegraphed someway in advance, 5 Days/Paid To Kill is reasonably suspenseful and largely successful on its own terms, efficiently directed by Tully.

    Kill me or I give you away to the police.

    Dane Clark often played ambiguous characters (check the so called well -meaning brother-in -law in " without honor"). Here ,going bankrupt, he wants to die so his wife can collect the insurance money :but he makes no bones about blackmailing an old friend he formerly helped to escape from the gallows. His killer has to do away with him in a way it looks like an accident.

    But a new associate retrieves the situation :now the factory is thriving again and there's no more reason to sacrifice one's life. But the "paid to kill" man seems to have disappeared , and there's no way to get the message "the deal is off" through .Soon the industrialist is victim of a murder attempt .But the killer might be someone else who takes advantage of the situation ; when you are wealthy and married to a pretty wife,you have other enemies you do not suspect.

    Good film noir ,in a sticky atmosphere (the sauna!) , with enough unexpected twists to sustain the interest throughout.

      When Kirby leaves the party at Nevill's and goes to a bar, the two men sitting behind him (one played by an uncredited Warren Mitchell) are, from their dialogue, clearly gay. Pretty daring for 1954.
