Six Bridges to Cross

This movie is the fourth film inspired from the famous Brink's facility - depot- in Boston, in the early fifties. It has already been adapted by Jerry Hopper's BLUEPRINT FOR ROBBERY; William Friedkin's BRINK'S JOB; Marvin Chomsky's BRINKS THE GREAT ROBBERY. This one. It is also under the influence of the Warner bros social crime films of the thirties, especially when watching the first part, exploring the youth of some of the opponents. You can think of ANGELS WITH DIRTY FACES or any DEAD END KIDS stuff. This Jo Pevney movie is the less focused on the robbery among the three others. Good cop and gentle gangster friendship, with much moral against criminal life style, as in an old Warner Bros film.
