Movie review - "The Bank Raiders" (1958) **

 British B movie from the late 50s - I'm surprised they were still making them when TV came in.

Sidney Tafler, who is in a bunch of these films, like Wide Boy, is a crime boss. Peter Reynolds is a gigolo who works for Tafler as a getaway driver. Aussie Lloyd Lamble is the detective on the case. Arthur Mullard, a burly type in lots of roles, is a hood. Sandra Dorn is a trash gal.

Directed by Maxwell Munden for "The Film Workshop". It's cheap, cheap looking (apart from location work). Poor acting from minor roles.

Some bits are good like Lamble interrogating Reynolds.
