The last film of both director George King and star Douglass Montgomery (both of whom coincidentally died in 1966) is a dark melodrama typical of postwar austerity Britain with a decidedly continental feel in which romance beckons with nice Hazel Court, but Montgomery is already shackled to faithless high maintainance wife Patricia Burke.
Peopled with denizens of the spiv economy like Ronald Shiner and a lean, zoot-suited young Kenneth Griffith packing a flick-knife; it could easily be French, or a German silent, and even looks like one courtesy of Hone Glendinning's usual atmospheric photography and the production design by Bernard Robinson, who later found steady employment with Hammer Films.
