Tiger Bay (1959)
Directed by J. Lee Thompson.
With Hayley Mills, Horst Buchholz, John Mills
Tiger Bay is a 1959 British crime drama film based on the short story "Rodolphe et le Revolver", by Noel Calef. It was directed by J. Lee Thompson, produced by John Hawkesworth, and co-written by John Hawkesworth and Shelley Smith. It stars John Mills as a police superintendent investigating a murder; his daughter Hayley Mills, in her first major film role, as a girl who witnesses the murder; and Horst Buchholz as a young sailor who commits the murder in a moment of passion.
The film was shot mostly on location in the Tiger Bay district of Cardiff, at Newport Transporter Bridge in Newport, and at Avonmouth Docks in Bristol. It features many authentic scenes of the children's street culture and the black street culture of the time, along with many dockside shots and scenes in real pubs and the surrounding countryside. It marks a vital transitional moment in the move towards the British New Wave cinema exemplified a few years later by A Taste of Honey.
