Review :
A good old British drama
I only recently found out about this movie thanks to ITV screening it. As it was on during the early hours, I set the video to record it and was pleased I did.
A group of smugglers are 'haunting' a castle, which happens to be haunted anyway by a monk. One of the smugglers poses as this monk and frightens some of the locals. A reporter and his girlfriend decide to investigate this and discover these smugglers are importing parts to build an atomic bomb which could course great loss of life and destruction over a large area. They get arrested at the end.
This movie also gives you an idea on what life was like during the 1950's including a village fete which were popular at the time and still are today.
The nuclear jitters of the time probably spawned the movie, which was made at the height of the Atomic Age.
As well as Jimmy Hanley, it also stars Lionel Jefferies (Chitty Chitty Bang Bang) and Carry On star Kenneth Conner. All play good parts. The movie has a great theme and score too.
This movie is worth watching if you get the chance as it is rather hold to get hold of.
Rating: 3 and a half stars out of 5.
