England
Crime thriller still quite engrossing in spite of its time - 1937. Reminded me of Odd Man Out released ten years later. Same running-from-the-law meme, shot in murky b/w with a sympathetic protagonist.
The title was re-used for an American film in 1940. Nothing remained of the original story (taken from a novel) except the focus on long-haul truckers.
Worth it even though there were some creaky bits. Loved the peek into the world of taxi dancers.
