Watch The Blue Lamp (1950) Official Trailer
Sheds just enough light for MURDER
6.6 / 10 IMDb January 19, 1950 1h 24m
P.C. George Dixon is a long-serving traditional copper who is due to retire shortly. He takes a new recruit under his aegis and introduces him to the easy-going night beat. Dixon is a classic ordinary hero but also anachronistic, unprepared and unable to answer the violence of the 1950s.
