The Squeaker 1937 Based on the novel of the same name by Edgar Wallace, screenplay by Edward O Berkman and Bryan Edgar Wallace, directed by William K Howard. A British film that's known in the US as Murder On Diamond Row.
A fence called The Squeaker has the London underworld at his mercy. He knows all about the big robberies. If he doesn't get a nice cut he'll turn the crooks into the police.
Edmond Lowe is Inspector Barrabel. He's after The Squeaker. Ann Todd, Robert Newton and Alastair Sim are the cast members I knew. It's a fairly entertaining story that is about average in it's telling. Worth a look for those that like a mystery.
