16.8.15

the end of the line (1957)

"It doesn't pay to upset people"
American writer Mike Selby (Alan Baxter) gets mixed up Liliane (Barbara Shelley), the wife of a noted hotelier and nightclub owner (Arthur Gomez), with a sideline in jewelry fencing. Stupidly he is goaded into stealing from him, and realises how deep he's in it when he finds the fence dead.
Shelley is the cool manipulator, Baxter a plank of wood...guess where the film falls down?
