The Squeeze (1977)
7/10
British crime drama
11 November 2022
Drunken former cop Jim Naboth (Stacy Keach) gets experimental treatment. He's now dry, but no longer in Scotland Yard. Foreman (Edward Fox) barges in looking his wife and daughter. She happens to be Jim's ex-wife. Keith (David Hemmings) and his gang had kidnapped them for ransom.

Director Michael Apted is doing a British crime drama. It's a good example of 70's gritty crime movie. Stripping Stacy Keach naked is very memorable. The pacing is uneven at times. I would like for the tension to stay at a higher level and build up better. The actors are all great. This is solid work and fitting for the 70's.
