Michael Caine's Irish accent is as good as his Geordie accent in Get Carter.
Caine has a bit part as a gang member who abduct an elderly woman who worked in a jewellery shop.
They get her keys in order to carry out the raid. The woman is later found dead.
Inspector Sparrow investigates but he soon finds that his boss wants to call in Scotland Yard.
Undeterred Sparrow is suspicious of Reynolds the jewellery shop owner.
He used to lock up and until he had heart trouble when he passed the duty on to his employee.
Sparrow observes that Reynolds plays a hard game of tennis and his doctor in unaware of any heart problems.
However the members of the gang are no slouches. They figure that Sparrow is nosing about.
A nice gritty B movie short. There is a hard edged shootout at the end. Sparrow is going through a divorce and at the time that could be a death knell when it came to a promotion.
Sparrow was certainly solo in this one. Maybe the other boys in blue could had shown more support.
