In addition to talking to us about Ted Lewis's mark on the Brit Noir literary and cinematic landscape, Nick Triplow also treats us to the eight films that arguably laid the foundations for the iconic movie GET CARTER (1971) - adapted from Lewis's novel from a year earlier - JACK'S RETURN HOME (1970). And like Get Carter, most of these films are adaptations of novels too:

• BRIGHTON ROCK (1947)
• NIGHT AND THE CITY (1950)
• THE THIRD MAN (1949)
• THE LONG MEMORY (1953)
• HELL IS A CITY (1960)
• THE CRIMINAL (1957)
• HELL DRIVERS (1957)
• THE BLUE LAMP (1950)
