"If you refuse to cooperate you'll be as guilty as the traitors who gave Stalin the A-bomb." "Are you waving the flag at ME?!" Samuel Fuller's sensational film noir casts a steely eye at America in the dawn of the Cold War, and brings 1950s New York City alive on the screen in a manner rarely equalled in the annals of film.

In one of his greatest roles, Richard Widmark plays Skip McCoy, a seasoned pickpocket who unknowingly filches some radioactive loot: microfilm of top-secret government documents. Soon after, Skip finds himself mixed up with federal agents, Commie agents, and a professional stoolpigeon by the name of Moe (played by Thelma Ritter in her finest role this side of Rear Window).

With its complex ideology, outrageous dialogue, and electric action sequences, Pickup on South Street crackles in a way that only a Sam Fuller movie can, and is widely considered one of the director's finest achievements. The Masters of Cinema Series is proud to present Pickup on South Street on Blu-ray for the first time in the UK, in a Dual Format special edition.

Rock Hudson stars in this suspenseful drama directed by John Frankenheimer. Having lost his purpose in life, middle-aged banker Arthur Hamilton (Hudson) is given the opportunity to take on a completely new life after receiving a phone call from his friend Charlie (Murray Hamilton), who he believed to be dead. After being approached by an organisation known only as 'The Company', Arthur is afforded the chance to fake his own death, change his appearance and create a new life. Grasping the opportunity, he adopts the identity of an artist named Tony Wilson, who owns a home in Malibu and has his own servant. But he comes to realise that his new transformation comes with unforeseen costs..

I love this film, I first watched it just a couple of years back on sky movies, it really is one of those films that makes more of a profound effect when reflected on later, I can't wait to pick it up *rubs thighs*.....

It's a cracking film - Frankenheimer is an often overlooked director which is criminal because he made some AMAZING films.
