THE FRIGHTENED CITY

A cool British noir set in 1960s gangland London, THE FRIGHTENED CITY follows the story of a low-level criminal (Connery) who gets embroiled in a dangerous racketeering syndicate when he accepts a job from local mobster Harry Foulcher (Alfred Marks). A year before he was thrust into stardom as James Bond in "Dr. No", Sean Connery gave a spell-binding performance as the brooding, muscular Irish enforcer Paddy Damion with a streak of rakish charm, with electrifying support from Yvonne Romain as the beautiful gangster's moll Anya and from Herbert Lom as criminal mastermind Waldo Zhernikov.
