Synopsis
Early 1960s crime drama starring Sean Connery as Paddy Damion, a thief recruited by a mobster (Alfred Marks) to oversee his money-raising. Paddy is not a thug but takes the job because his partner (Kenneth Griffith) was injured in a robbery and he feels compelled to support him. Marks is actually the puppet of criminal mastermind Zhernikov (Herbert Lom), who has the image of a respectable businessman, but is actually manipulating local mobsters for his own ends.
