The Blue Lamp with Dirk Bogarde (1950)

★★★★ · Ringing Police Car · The Spanman · 2021-10-24

This was an enjoyable crime drama focused on a rookie police constable, his father (also a policeman) and their pursuit of a group of small-time hoods turned murderers. Pretty decent acting. My pick for the best screamer goes to the sensuous blonde who pals around with the junior thugs. My favorite was “Queenie,” the tight-lipped ragamuffin, who had to be bribed to cooperate. Good line of characters in the film. Dirk Bogarde was good in his role. With watching!

That was a good one. The British noirs are always pretty damn good. And Dirk Bogarde what an actor. Enjoy.
