Additional InformationAfter the war, British films began avoiding the heiresses and lordships that had dominated the drama field and began pursuing realism -- which often was just as artificial as the earlier white-telephone pictures. John McCallum plays Tommy Swann, a product of the working class who tries to better himself by becoming a criminal. Escaping from prison, Swann hides out in the East London home of his former mistress Rose (Googie Withers), who has since married George Sandigate (Edward Chapman). The film is told from Swann's point-of-view, and a dismal view that is. Nor does Rose seem any happier with her drab lot in life. Swann's return does nothing but further their misery, tearing Rose' family apart and sending Swann back into the arms of the law.

Top class post-war London-set film noir
This is a first-rate top-class thriller in the film noir mode, all the more interesting because it is British. Great performances, moody, dark and memorable, set against a backdrop of war-bombed London and grim prison life. Not well known at all - but a real gem and deserves greater attention.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
