Hell Drivers (1957)

Description

A corrupt road-haulage company forces its drivers to make death-defying cross country chases to collect bonuses. When ex-con Tom (Stanley Baker) signs up, he becomes a threat to the victoriously ambitious Number One driver (Patrick McGoohan) and the stakes are raised when a fatal accident has Tom vowing revenge. The film has an impressive cast of hard-boiled character actors including Herbert Lom, Peggy Cummins, Sid James, William Hartnell, Gordon Jackson, Alfie Bass, David McCallum and - blink and you'll miss him - a young Sean Connery. BAFTA® nominated for Best Screenplay.
