Hell Is a City
10. 4. 1960 (1960-04-10)
Ujedinjeno KraljevstvoHell Is a City (sh. Pakao je grad) je britanski crno-bijeli kriminalistički film snimljen 1960. godine u režiji Vala Guesta. Predstavlja adaptaciju istoimenog romana Mauricea Proctera.[1] Radnja se događa u Manchesteru[2], a protagonist, koga tumači Stanley Baker je policijski inspektor koji postaje uvjeren da će se opasni krimninalac (čiji lik tumači John Crawford) nakon bijega iz zatvora vratiti u taj grad kako bi se povezao sa starom bandom i preuzeo prethodno skriveni plijen. Radnja prikazuje kako se njegove sumnje opravdaju kada jedna žena na ulici bude brutalno ubijena radi novca. Iako je napravljen u produkciji Hammer Film Productions, studija specijaliziranog za niskobudžetne žanrovske filmove, Hell Is a City je po svom stilu i vizualnom ugođaju odao uticaj socijalno angažiranih filmova tzv. Britanskog novog vala.[3]
