Part of our 'Detective Season'. Glenn Ford stars in this hard-boiled classic

To coincide with our theatre production of Sherlock Holmes: Valley of Fear, we wanted to screen some classic detective movies. A genre that has been popular since the 1930s all the way up to present day and has generated some of the all-time greats.

About the film
Dave Bannion is an upright cop on the trail of a vicious gang he suspects holds power over the police force. Bannion is tipped off after a colleague's suicide and his fellow officers' suspicious silence lead him to believe that they are on the gangsters' payroll. When a bomb meant for him kills his wife instead, Bannion becomes a furious force of vengeance and justice.
