Anecdotes
The Weapon is a 1956 British crime thriller film directed by Val Guest and starring Steve Cochran, Lizabeth Scott, Herbert Marshall, and Nicole Maurey. It was made by Republic Pictures.
Production
The film was shot in the east end of London and at Walton Studios, with sets designed by art director John Stoll.
Guest said "Steve Cochran... was a born problem" on the film. "There are certain people who are problems. I was told when we made The Weapon, Lizabeth Scott was a great problem but I didn't have any problems with her at all, in fact she used to come and confide all her problems to me and she had enough problems because her name had just been found in the call girl's book, in New York, in that big trial. I'm sure it's a matter of confidence."
Guest said producer Hal Chester was "a very strange little producer... who really knew more about nothing than anyone else. And he had come from poverty row, full of noises of what he'd done and he was actually one of the Bowery Boys, ... still was and he really knew very little about everything...
