Odd Man Out

James Mason stars as Johnny McQueen, an idealistic leader of an illegal organisation in Northern Ireland, imprisoned for gun-running. Escaping, he plans an armed raid to financially support his plans – but it goes wrong; he is shot and badly wounded. Stumbling through the back-alleys of Belfast, he must find a place to hide out, but discovers he is not just wanted by the police, but by the people he thought of as his friends…

Taken from a digitally-restored High Definition print, Oscar-winning cinematographer Robert Krasker’s (The Third Man, El Cid) imagery has never looked better, in this tale of terrorists on the run. Featuring outstanding performances by Robert Newton (Oliver Twist! Obsession) as Lukey, the artist who wants to capture the moment of death in McQueen’s eyes, and Kathleen Ryan (Give us this Day, The Sound of Fury), as the woman who loves him more than life itself, Odd Man Out Special Edition is a story that shows the impact of the Irish Question on ordinary people, and not just those involved directly with the struggle.

• Commemorative booklet, including original theatrical press-book
