Scr. Terence Rattigan, based on the novel by Graham Greene. Dir. John Boulting
This archetypal British noir tells the taut and tragic tale of young gangster Pinkie (Richard Attenborough) and the turmoil he brings to a beleaguered resort town trying to emerge from the ruins of war. Voted number 15 in BFI's poll of Britain's greatest films.
