Piccadilly Third Stop

A playboy tries to recruit a gang, who include an American who needs cash to satisfy his wife's expensive tastes, and an old time expert cracksman, to rob a foreign embassy's safe, but trouble starts when the plan begins to go wrong.

Directed by Wolf Rilla, Piccadilly Third Stop leans on a strong ensemble — Terence Morgan, Yoko Tani, John Crawford — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about crime titles of 1960.
