Sure! "The Criminal" is a 1960 British crime film directed by Joseph Losey. Here are more plot details:
After being caught and sent back to prison, Johnny Bannion (played by Stanley Baker) finds himself serving a seven-year sentence. Inside the prison, he quickly establishes his dominance among the other inmates and gains the respect of fellow criminals, including a corrupt prison officer.
While still behind bars, Johnny begins planning a daring escape with the help of the gang he was previously involved with. He teams up with Mike Carter (played by Sam Wanamaker), a mobster he meets inside the prison who has connections on the outside.
During a daring breakout, Johnny successfully escapes prison and reunites with his former gang members. However, tensions rise within the group as Johnny refuses to reveal the whereabouts of the stolen loot from the racetrack heist that led to his capture. The gang members become increasingly desperate and violent in their attempts to extract the information from Johnny.
Amid the escalating violence and betrayals, Johnny reconnects with Suzanne (played by Margit Saad), an old flame who now works as a nightclub singer. He seeks her help and protection as he tries to outwit both the gang and the authorities.
As the pressure on Johnny mounts, he slowly starts losing control over the situation. The movie delves into the psychological toll of crime, the pursuit of power and money, and the consequences that arise when trust is broken among criminals.
With intense performances and its gritty portrayal of the criminal underworld, "The Criminal" explores themes of loyalty, manipulation, and the price one pays for a life of crime.
