Midnight Movie: Victim

on BBC Two England

Starring Dirk Bogarde, Sylvia Syms

Barrister Melville Farr is well aware of the risk to his career and his marriage when he decides to unmask a blackmailing gang whose victims are all homosexuals - for Farr himself is a potential victim.
In one of the most courageous British films of its time - the un-permissive early 60s - Dirk Bogarde heads a fine cast in this dramatic thriller set in London.
