This movie is determined to persuade you that London in 1956 could be just as hip as New York. The guns, gangsters and fast cars do their best but it's hard to disguise a bunch of Englishmen in tweed jackets driving Ford Prefects. The fast paced plot about smugglers who accidentally create the risk of an anthrax epidemic is really too complex for the very short running time. The real highlight is the superb black and white cinematography around London's docklands, which tips the balance to make this one worth watching.
