The Teckman Mystery (1954)
Director: Wendy Toye
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Commissioned to write the biography of a dead test pilot, John Justin walks into more than a tight deadline. He's knocked unconscious, his flat's turned upside down and he's offered lots of dosh by a very shady character. A mindlessly diverting British thriller, neatly adapted from a Francis Durbridge TV serial, but essentially unremarkable.Author: TJ
