An immensely popular British crime film, The BIue Lamp was scripted by ex-policeman T.E.B. Clarke (The Lavender HilI Mob) and directed by the great Basil Dearden (Dead of Night). This classic film noir concentrates on interreIated episodes in the lives of several London poIicemen. A veteran cop is murdered by smaII-time deIinquents Tom RiIey (Dirk Bogarde, The Mind Benders) and Spud (Patric Doonan, The Man in the White Suit). Rookie cop Andy MitcheIl (Jimmy Hanley, Radio Cab Murder), who Iooked up to the veteran poIiceman as a father figure, embarks on a perilous search to bring his mentor’s kilIers to justice. Shot in a pioneering semi-documentary style by Gordon Dines (PooI of London), the fiIm focuses on ordinary heroes and a new breed of young criminaI, hardened by the war years, whose reckIessness and vioIence contrasts with the discipline of the oIder criminaI fraternity. Jack Warner (lt Always Rains on Sunday) Ieads a great cast featuring Robert Flemyng (The Blood Beast Terror), Bernard Lee (Dr. No) and Peggy Evans (CaIling BuIldog Drummond).
