Bang! You're Dead (1954)
Director: Lance Comfort
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Strange little movie about a young boy who kills a man by mistake with a gun he thought was a toy. As the police hunt goes up, with an innocent man coming under suspicion, the film can't make up its mind whether it's a thriller or a piece of social conscience, but the performance of the boy (Richmond) lends it charm.Author: GA
