7/10
The man who died twice.
1 March 2024
Elderly, disabled newspaper seller, Joe Burrage, disappears after witnessing a raid on a warehouse. Joe refuses to talk to Thr Police, but when he vanishes, Inspector Turner suspects foul play

More going on here than first appears, it's slow to start, but develops well, and features a rather unexpected, and well conceived twist.

Very much in the noir style once again, it even has that wonderfully dramatic, accompanying music too, it really does add a sense of drama. The rooftop punch up and subsequently chase scenes look great.

Worth watching to see a young James Villiers, in his first ever acting role, here he appears as the young lab technician, who identified the innocuous white powder, he isn't credited.

Edgar Lustgarten as always adds to the sense of mystery and intrigue.

7/10.
