They say you get what you pay for. This is a superior crime thriller notable for the intricacy of its plot, the acid wit of the script and above all the superb moonlit black and white cinematography.

Potential buyers of this cheap Network DVD version should note that the picture, though acceptable, is not as sharp as it might be and the sound is generally poor. There appears to have have been minimal, if any, effort at restoration. Happily, there is at the time of writing a Criterion version soon to be released. I for one will upgrade.

Mr DeRiemer below offers a lengthy review which will ruin any chance of enjoying the ending by revealing the plot. I haven't seen the film so this is hardly a review but I might save others from this man's musings. I have asked Amazon to consider removing it.

sim-ply marvellous! 2 Aug 2007
Format:DVD
Another tour-de-force from the wonderful Alistair Sim and an object lesson in comic timing and delivery of a terrific script from a master. I hesitate to call it his finest hour as he had so many! The plot is splendid and the supporting cast - a who's who of British 1940s cinema - is first rate. I do agree that the quality of the DVD could have been better though.

An Oldie but a Goodie
Green For Danger is one of those rare finds - a really good thriller without any bad language or sex(might have something to do with it being made in the forties). Read more

Green for Danger
Another fine Alaistair Sim film, this time with Sim as the policeman, proving that the police are not infallible although catching the criminal in the end.

One of the very best---snap it up!
The previous reviewers got it right. Sim does a brilliant star turn here. "Green for Danger" was a well-known novel and then a stage play before it was a film. Read more
