Stars Trevor Howard and Jean Simmons. Clearly influenced by early Hitchcock (YOUNG & INNOCENT and 39 STEPS ... though no one ever approaches Hitch's genius, of course)

"Brisk, no-nonsense British war movie , tersely directed by Michael McCarthy (whose background was in documentary). Tony Britton leads a mission to Amsterdam in the summer of 1940 (the eve of the Nazi invasion) to prevent a valuable stash of industrial diamonds falling into enemy hands. Time is short - the Germans are only hours from town - but Britton and his crew make sure they get the job done. The one real casualty here is characterisation - there's such an onus on keeping the narrative moving that we get precious little chance to learn what makes the heroes tick. Adapted by the director and John Eldridge from the book Adventure in Diamonds by David E Walker." Time Out

The Reverend and Mrs Simpson

"The Reverend and Mrs. Simpson" follows the life of Eva, a German war bride, and her young son, Michael, as they struggle to make a new life in post-war England. After her husband, a soldier, abandons them, they are left to face the harsh prejudice of their new community. The local reverend, Samuel Simpson, and his compassionate housekeeper, Margaret, step in to offer support. Despite their help, Eva and Michael are isolated, fighting not only their financial struggles but the growing resentment of those around them.

As the years pass, Eva grows closer to Reverend Simpson, and a quiet bond develops between them. Just when she begins to find hope for a better future, the unexpected return of her husband sends shockwaves through their fragile world. His presence ignites a tragic series of events, culminating in a devastating loss that leaves Eva and Michael forever changed, emotionally and physically scarred by betrayal and abandonment.

Four decades later, a gravedigger unearths a long-hidden secret, buried deep in the past. This discovery forces the surviving members of the story to confront the haunting consequences of their actions. As the truth about Eva’s life and her son’s fate finally comes to light, the weight of unresolved grief and the scars of history reveal the devastating cost of forgotten promises and broken families.

The Third Secret is a gripping mystery that keeps the audience on edge as they piece together the puzzle of Dr. Vance’s death. The film blends psychological drama with elements of suspense, offering twists and turns that lead to a chilling conclusion. With strong performances, particularly from Stephen Boyd and Jacqueline Pygmalion, it is a classic example of 1960s psychological thrillers. This movie is a must-watch for fans of mystery, suspense, and drama.

Black comedy set in Soho, London, right after WW2.

Mrs. Railton, who happens to be blind and deaf, somehow manages to run a private club, as well as acting as a fence for baddie Clem Hayes and his gang of misfits. After one of the gang gets caught during a heist, Mrs. Railton tells Clem that they'll need to cool it for a while.
But Clem has different ideas, and reveals details relating to a diamond consignment worth £250,000 that is coming over from Amsterdam.
He reveals where the diamonds are being stored, and has floor plans of the building, so the gang can be in and out with no problems.
The heist goes ahead, and everything runs smoothly, except..., a night watchman ends up dead. Panic sets in amongst Railton, Hayes and the gang, as the thought of facing murder charges sends everyone into panic mode, and the saying, "Honour Amongst Thieves" goes out the window.
Far fetched basis regarding Mrs. Railton's character, but fairly entertaining crime thriller, with a very early role for Sean Connery.
