This strangely short murder-mystery is a good reminder of why the English film industry was so strong during this period.
The cast of relative unknowns (with the exception of a young Honor Blackman) deliver a tight story in a precise way. The sub texts of the story are not laboured, creating an involving story.
It's worth the time.
