When local Juvenile Liaison Officer Sergeant Truman (Baker) visits the Murphy household, with the view that if you catch kids at an early age, they will end up being reseponsible adults.

Excellent depiction of teenage life in Liverpool at a time when the Beatles first met each other. Makes me wonder if they ever talked about this film.

***MILD SPOILERS*** Insightful film about tense relations between the police and the disenfranchised poor in Liverpool. Gripping, suspenseful, film noirish, still timely in regards "us versus them" relations between police and citizens nearly 60 years hence. Good acting all round, except by some of the children.
