Tiger Bay

Tiger Bay (1959) is a British crime thriller you can watch online on iFILM, directed by J. Lee Thompson and shot on location in the Cardiff docklands. When street kid Gillie witnesses a Polish sailor kill his girlfriend in a jealous rage, she doesn't raise the alarm — she pockets his revolver instead.

Detective Graham figures out that Gillie has the murder weapon and presses her hard, but she outmaneuvers every adult in the room with inventive, relentless lying. A grudging bond forms between the runaway sailor and the girl who could put him away. John Mills plays the inspector; his real-life daughter Hayley, thirteen at the time, took a BAFTA for her performance and stepped out of this film as a star. Stream Tiger Bay online on iFILM.
