An interesting examination of life in the years following the blitz on London. Many are still living in sub-standard housing - in this case, within a deserted US military depot, where an aging widowed dad strives to support his young son. The main focus of this little psychological drama centers on the finding of an old service revolver and its consequences - while also looking at the social standards of the day.
Effective performances, direction, and good b/w cinematography help but an odd intro showing the crime before it's been committed seems unnecessarily confusing. Great Studiocanal/Network DVD Re-Mastering helps.
