Why watch?

“I forgot to breathe for the whole film. It's the perfect film to watch to forget about the world around you and be fully transfixed in its gripping story, and remind you about the importance of following your dreams. It needs to be seen in the cinema, both to fully appreciate its artistry, and also, if, like me, technology lets you down mid-film - you may have a meltdown, because you NEED to see how it ends.”

Martha Boyd,

A bank heist turns into a life-or-death race-against-time in Vernon Sewell’s gripping British ‘B’ movie thriller. This 1962 film, rarely seen on the big screen since then, has recently been hailed by Martin Scorsese and Edgar Wright.

Crime • Riveting • Hidden gem

Taut as a drum, Vernon Sewell’s suspense thriller is an outstanding example of the lean British ‘B’ film. A carefully-planned heist on a suburban bank goes awry when the gang of three small-time criminals are interrupted by the unexpected arrival of two nattering cleaners.

The gang lock the bank manager and his secretary in the airtight vault and make off with the cash. However, they soon realise that the pair will suffocate and the gang will face a murder rap if they can’t free them. With only 12 hours’ worth of air in the vault, the clock is ticking.
