Illicit cross-channel smuggling seems like an attractive and lucrative prospect. But from the apparently harmless ferrying of duty-free wine the crew gradually descend into altogether deeper waters, culminating in the carriage of a mysterious fugitive who turns out to be a convicted child-killer. Brighton Rock (1947): The elegant and respectable facade of Brighton hides a sinister underworld, ruled by intimidation and terror. Richard Attenborough stars as Pinkie, a ruthless and sadistic young criminal whose trail of killings and double crossings lead to his eventual downfall when savage justice is finally meted out in a thrilling and memorable climax. Dunkirk (1958): An easygoing British Corporal (John Mills) in France finds himself responsible for the lives of his men when their officer is killed. He has to get them back to Britain somehow. Meanwhile, British civilians are being dragged into the war with Operation Dynamo, the scheme to get the French and British forces back from the Dunkirk beaches. Some come forward to help, others are less willing. The Man Upstairs (1958):The mental breakdown of a guilt-ridden man provides the drama in this fascinating psychological profile that stars Richard Attenborough as a scientist who can't live with himself after he accidentally kills the brother of his fiancee. In order to escape...Richard Attenborough Collection - 7-DVD Box Set ( Brighton Rock / The Ship That Died of Shame / Private's Progress / Brothers in Law / Dunkirk / The Man Upstairs / The Angry Silence ) ( Young Scarface / PT Raiders / Privates Progress )
