Anecdotes
Scenes for this film were shot at Clapton Greyhound Stadium. Clapton dog track opened 1928, closed 1974.

Gaffes
When Ricky 'borrows' his brother-in-law's lorry, the front left headlight isn't working. In the next shot it is and then isn't again subsequently.

This is quite possible, but in the UK post WW2 it was a requirement for headlights to operate on a 'dip and out' system where on full beam both lamps were lit, but on dip beam the kerbside lamp was turned off while the off side lamp was dipped but still illuminated.

Important Film

It is not so much about the crime story as the social culture that is documented in Bethnal Green in the mid 1960s.

This isn't swinging London, this is gritty down to earth poor London.

The living conditions, the workplace and the desire for something better drives this film into something more than just another B&W also ran compared with the likes of A Kind of Loving and Taste of Honey.

It is summed up with the mother's observations of her life as she walked with her son down the street at the end.

The washhouse is a particular eye opener. This was only 60 years ago.
