British film by Ernest Morris
Transatlantic is a 1960 British film directed by Ernest Morris and starring June Thorburn, Robert Ayres and Pete Murray. It was written by Brian Clemens and produced by The Danzigers.[1] It was released on 21 August 1961.[1]
A gang of criminals steal jewels from a plane in mid-flight. They escape by parachute, having left a time-bomb on board which destroys the plane. The pilot is suspected of involvement, but his sister tracks down the gang and clears her late brother’s name.
The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: “Familiar crime-in-the-sky concoction; one or two faint tremors of tension, but for the most part elementary. Pete Murray gives a grotesque impersonation of an American law man.”[2]
