Synopsis:

This fast-paced, standard crime story about a caper gone awry is directed by Rilla Wolf and stars Terence Morgan as Dominic, a petty crook with minor crimes on his agenda until he sees a chance for a big haul. Dominic's associates include tough guy Pready (John Crawford) and Edward (Dennis Price), a crooked gambling boss who Dominic helps by introducing innocent victims into his con game. One day Dominic hooks up with Fina (Yoko Tani) the naive daughter of an ambassador who just happens to let slip that a whole lot of cash is stashed away in their embassy's safe. Dominic's charms work wonders, and before long Fina agrees to help in a robbery of the embassy's holdings. At that point, careful planning and a good safecracker (William Hartnell) make it seem like everything will go off without a hitch.

Wolf Rilla (Village Of The Damned) directed this 1960 UK production, it is very well cast with Terence Morgan at his most oiliest as a playboy petty thief looking for the big time, John Crawford as a yank in London comes across well as the bad tempered crook and William Hartnell as the crusty safecracker. The music by Phillip Green is great 60s jazz which adds to this excellent production, picture and sound are of a high standard following extensive restoration - recommended.

A Playboy tries to recruit a gang, who include an American who needs cash to satisfy his wife's expensive tastes, and an old time expert cracksman, to rob a foreign embassy's safe, but trouble starts when the plan begins to go wrong.
