The Man from London

2008139 min7.1 / 10

A slow-burn neo-noir meditation on moral compromise and its corrosive effects, told in austere black-and-white with the fog-bound atmosphere of a seaside crime.

A switchman at a seaside railway witnesses a murder but does not report it after he finds a suitcase full of money at the scene of the crime.
