FREEDOM TO DIE

GB
1961
1hr 01min
Dir: Francis Searle
Starring: Paul Maxwell and Kay Callard

A vicious criminal escapes prison and goes searching for a stash of stolen loot

This surprisingly professional little crime thriller utilises a handful of small sets to tell an intriguing tale of crime and retribution. In a number of street scenes filmed in Dublin, Connolly station can be seen in the background beyond Amiens Street railway bridge.

The building in the background belongs to Connolly station which at the time of filming was named Amiens Street. The station was renamed in 1966. The railway bridge in front of it crosses Amiens Street.
