The Wrong Arm of the Law

(1963)Directed by Cliff Owen94 minCrime, Comedy
“Meet the Mastermind Who Pulls the Strings in the Underworld...and all his mobs and dolls...filling the London fog with laughter and lunacy!!!”

A new gang is working London, dressing as police officers and robbing the city's own crooks. Pearly Gates (Peter Sellers), a well-mannered criminal boss, and Inspector Fred 'Nosey' Parker (Lionel Jeffries) both want it stopped, so the two sides agree to team up against the impostors. Cliff Owen plays it on the old understanding that thieves and police each keep to their own side of the line.
