About this product

Product Information

Bonar Colleano, who spent the war years playing featured roles in British films as likeably cocky Americans, heads the cast of POOL OF LONDON. Ever his brass, cheeky self, Colleano is cast as Dan MacDonald, a sailor who dabbles in a bit of smuggling, just for the fun of it. The fun is over when he gets mixed up with a gang of jewel thieves who have a habit of framing others for their crimes. At the risk of his own neck, MacDonald must extricate his best friend Johnny (Earl Cameron) from a murder charge. POOL OF LONDON ran into censorship troubles in the U.S. because of its depiction of a romance between Cameron, a black actor, and Susan Shaw, a white actress.

Not my cup of tea, I'm afraid
I knew it was a 1951 film when I ordered it, but I found the acting to be a tad wooden, also my family worked in the London Docks during and after the war, and other family members were merchant seaman during the same period so from stories they had previously told me, this script was too nicely-nicely for the people and the workers of that area. It's such a shame as I was really looking forward to watching it, but 15-minutes was the most my wife and I could suffer without becoming bored out of our brains . . . .

A slice of history.
All the main action in this film is filmed on location in the London docks of the 1950s. It is an education in itself.
