The Marked One

Criminals believe that ex con Don Mason is in possession of forgery plates, to coerce him into handing them over, they threaten to kidnap his daughter Mary.

I wouldn't say this is the most dynamic looking film I've come across, very much a B movie, it's functional, it's well filmed and well produced, but it's more robust than dynamic.

However when it comes to the film's actual story and the acting, it scores quite highly. It's engaging, a good old fashioned story of blackmail, with the central character Don proving to be an interesting leading man.

A short running time helps the film's pace, it pops along quite nicely.

William Lucas is very strong as Don, very well supported by Zena Walker, she clearly had a busy agent, she was a prolific actress, talented too.

Competently well made, well acted, with a good storyline, it's a good watch.

7/10.
