Ernest Wrightโ€™s peerless prowess as a locksmith comes to the attention of a tough big-time crook, who feels that the little man would be a valuable asset to his crime kingdom. In order to inveigle him into a series of jobs, he sets up a beautiful hostess as a trap, into which the hapless Ernest inevitably falls!

This hugely endearing crime caper stars Charlie Drake as a mild-mannered locksmith whose talents land him in hot water when heโ€™s recruited by a criminal gang; Nyree Dawn Porter is the beautiful girl who could spell his downfall, with Oscar winner George Sanders as rival crime boss โ€˜the Guvโ€™norโ€™ opposite Dennis Price (Kind Hearts and Coronetsโ€™ villainous aristocratic outcast).

The Cracksman is presented here in a brand-new transfer from the original film elements in its as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratio.

The British Film

The British Film collection was launched by Network Distributing in April 2013 as part of a five-year plan to release over 450 vintage British films through a deal with Studiocanal, one of Europeโ€™s leading distribution and production companies. Many of the films have never been available to own and will benefit from new transfers, affirming Network Distributingโ€™s commitment to classic British cinema.

Titles include significant works from studios including Associated Talking Pictures, Ealing Studios, London Films, British Lion, Associated British Picture Corporation and EMI from the Studiocanal archive.
