British B - "C" really - is a drama that probably would be more at home as a TV play. It gives Tab Hunter a decent chance as a criminal out of prison reconnecting with his wife and daughter. Wife has a new guy who is some British drip. It's not a conventional sort of gangster film - there's no one more job, which may have added to the film's appeal. Hunter is good as a person who is a bit of a psycho and there's solid tension in the scenes when he kidnaps his kid. Zena Walker is the wife.
It probably could've done with another subplot.
