The Long Arm**       

(GB 1956)                        

A Scotland Yard detective investigates a series of cunning safe robberies.
Above average police drama of a kind very fashionable at the time, professionally put together in a no-nonsense style (like the police detectives themselves), with an exemplary cast and a climax in the Royal Festival Hall.
