hell is a city (1960)

Inspector Martineau (Stanley Baker) is a hardened detective with the Manchester police force on the trail of John Starling, a ruthless criminal who has recently escaped from prison. A prison that Martineau had put him in and is determined to put him back into. But is Matrineau's dedication to work at the expense of his personal life?
A classic British noir featuring a taut script, mean and moody direction, some great location filming in Manchester and the great and the good of British acting talent.
