Curiozități
Wide Boy is a 1952 British second feature ('B') crime film directed by Ken Hughes and starring Susan Shaw, Sydney Tafler and Ronald Howard.
Production
The story was by Rex Rienits, who also used it for a radio play (see below) and short story. Rienits wrote the scenario for star Sydney Tafler, who had been in the 1951 film Assassin for Hire (1951), also written by Rienits. Tafler, however, played a different role in Wide Boy, whereas Ronald Howard and Gerald Case were cast as the same policeman characters they'd played in the earlier film.
Film rights for the story were bought by Anglo Amalgamated and filming started at the end of January 1952.
