The Vicious Circle (1957 Gerald Thomas)

John Mills (never seen him give a bad performance - well not since the very early days anyway) becomes embroiled in murder plot - nice detective Roland Culver believes him. Francis Durbridge wrote it (it's kinda easy to guess and somewhat unbelievable) - a keen crime novelist and playwright who created Paul Temple. With Derek Farr, Noelle Middleton, Wilfred Hyde White, Mervyn Johns, René Ray, Lionel Jeffries.

Otto Heller shoots good stuff on London locations. Thomas - never the most creative director - presents a terribly staged fight scene.
