 THE GENUINE ARTICLE........................... September 27, 2008

This is a classic British thriller from 1958. Diana Dors is stunning as the sex siren who drives a rift between two brothers without realising that she cannot have everything she wants. What she wants is George Baker, but she is already involved somewhat one sidedly with his brother.
The weaker brother, Dave, has robbed his employer and hits the panic button when he hears the auditors are on their way. Diana persuades him to rob the safe to get himself out of the pickle.
It is never that simple.
This is a stunning kitchen sink film noire. A serious drama, it has an intensity second to none. The scenery is bland and atmospheric and provides an excellent backdrop to this outstanding film.
It was lovely to see a young Patrick Allen.
WELL WORTH WATCHING!

George Minter put the making of this British classic on hold for several months until Diana Dors was free and we can see why! He was so determined to get her - she'd been tied up in a previous contract for films at the time and so had not been available for several months. She gets top billing in this - and no wonder!
Dors plays a good time girl who's bent on getting the guy with the money to go with it! Hypnotised by her beauty, 'Dave' (Terence Morgan) is blinded by the fact that she's not in love with him, and is persuaded to do a robbery, but all goes wrong and everything backfires...
There's plenty of tense moments and lots of suspense in this crime thriller, with one or two 'twists' thrown in for good measure!
This has been a dreadfully long time coming out on DVD, but has been well worth the wait since this has been lovingly re-mastered to an exceptionally high quality.
Also stars; Patrick Allen, George Baker and Jane Griffiths.
The title song was recorded by Jim Dale.
Fabulous movie!

At long last this British classic comes to DVD! Very realistic crime drama with never a dull moment and fine acting. The DVD itself from Odeon Entertainment is good quality, apart from a few light scratches here and there on their master. The only time this really effects the film is about half way through it where a line appears right down the middle of the picture. Luckily this only lasts for a minute or two but nevertheless is still annoying. Why didn't they have the master tape cleaned?
Anyway, the DVD is definetely worth the money with such a good price.
Enjoy.
