Double Exposures (A.K.A. Alibi Breaker) is a 1937 British crime film directed by John Paddy Carstairs and starring David Langton, Julien Mitchell and Ruby Miller.[1] It was made at Shepperton Studios as a quota quickie.[2] (David Langton is credited under the name Basil Langton, his birth name being Basil Muir Langton-Dodds. He later changed his acting name to David as there was another actor called Basil Langton.)
Reporter Peter Bradfield is fired from his newspaper for failing to deliver an interview with big businessman Hector Rodman. Plucky Bradfield subsequently becomes a photographic equipment salesman, and accidentally takes photos of two men in conversation. Unbeknown to him, these men are the businessmen's lawyer and his secretary, and are plotting to embezzle a fortune in bonds from Rodman, and planning to frame his workshy son George for the crime.
TV Guide called the film a "Negligible British effort";[3] while Nineacre called it a "Cheap but cheerful film, mainly due to Langton who plays a flippant gadabout town that populated these sorts of film."[4]
