Scotland Yard hört mit

An American safecracker has been brought to Great Britain on a job. While there, he does some work on his own, is caught, and sentenced to seven years in prison. Scotland Yard wants to know about the job he was brought over for, so they substitute William Sylvester -- all Yanks being indistinguishable -- and wait for his escape to be arranged.

It's a nice, twisty second feature as Sylvester goes from convict to a nice escape sequence, and a bit where he has to crack a safe on his own. Still, it proceeds at a swift enough pace that the audience doesn't have time to linger over such improbabilities, and Sabine Sesselmann, in her only English-language film, makes an alluring femme fatale. Keep an eye out for Hermione Baddeley as an aging street walker.
