Trapped (DVD)

Convicted counterfeiter Tris Stewart (Lloyd Bridges) is offered early release from prison in return for helping the US Treasury Agents track down his former partners-in-crime. Unwilling to cooperate, Stewart manages to escape, unwittingly playing straight into the T-Men's hands. Directed with style and a documentary feel by Richard Fleischer, no-one is quite what they seem. Trapped is superbly lit, with crisp, intelligent dialogue - a top notch Film Noir with an explosive ending.
