Synopsis:
Johnny McQueen, leader of an Irish organisation similar to the notorious IRA, was recently released from prison. He is working on a plan to commit a robbery to get money for the organisation. During the robbery, something goes wrong, and he gets shot. He ‘vanishes’ in the dark streets of Belfast swarming with policemen. Kathleen, the girl who loves him, is trying to get to him before the police… A respectable film, with excellent photography and great performance by Robert Newton.
