Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaTheatrical movie debut of Howard Keel (Boke), credited as Harold Keel.
- GoofsWhen Valerie Hobson is inside the telephone box trying to phone the police Howard Keel's hand suddenly appears on the telephone without any prior warning, although she would surely have been alerted to his presence before that when he (presumably) opened the door to the telephone box (English telephone boxes of that era automatically returning the door to a closed position by means of a leather strap).
Featured review
you can't get a man with a gun
Taut little British suspense feature sees Howard Keel in his film debut (billed as Harold Keel). Boke (Keel) is having a bad day he's broken out of Dartmoor Prison, shot a cop, been in a car crash and now is in a hostage situation with unhappily married couple James Donald and Valerie Hobson. He has Donald who writes plays about crooks trying to get into his psyche, Hobson looking at him like he's trash, the kid upstairs screaming from meningitis and two useless fellow escapees plus its hot inside and we've got no electric fan (James Donald didn't think it worthwhile buying one). Howard Keel looks lean and imposing and every inch his over 6ft height. American born Keel was in England starring on stage in 'Oklahoma'. You can hear him singing 'the hangman song' on the record James Donald plays. His next film was the big budget MGM musical ANNIE GET YOUR GUN. Oddly enough Keel played another escaped prisoner in the British made FLOODS OF FEAR. Valerie Hobson was married to the film's producer Anthony Havelock-Allan and later married politician John Profumo but that's a whole other story !!!
