The Blue Lamp (1950)

Directed by Basil Dearden
My rating: 3 stars out of 4
IMDb

The first half is a bit slow, a rather routine drama told from the point of view of the police. However, this is all a set up to the very good second half. The death hits us hard because we know the character well. The finale is an extended chase scene, ending up in a crowded stadium, very modern and very fast paced.
