Dick Barton at Bay (1950): reparto, argumento y streaming

Released in 1950, Dick Barton at Bay is a crimen, aventura and familia film directed by Godfrey Grayson, running about 64 minutes. “With one bound Dick was free” — that tagline sets the tone.

What it’s about. David Phillips (Patrick Macnee) is running down the darkened streets of London's Limehouse district, pursued by two men with guns. He finds a public phone and puts a call through to Dick Barton (Don Stannard), but before he can report, a shot rings out. Barton must piece together what Phillips found out that got him killed. Phillips had been assigned to protect Professor Mitchell (Percy Walsh) and his new development, a ray capable of exploding any unstable element aboard an aircraft in flight. Mitchell has been targeted for kidnapping by Serge Volkoff (Meinhart Maur), a foreign agent from Eastern Europe, as part of a larger, much more sinister plot to destroy England and cripple Western Europe. Complicating matters further is that Mitchell's daughter (Joyce Linden) has also been kidnapped, and Barton must contend with Volkoff's crafty female companion Anna (Tamara Desni).

Who’s in it. Dick Barton at Bay stars Don Stannard as Dick Barton, Tamara Desni as Anna, Meinhart Maur as Serge Volkoff and Joyce Linden as Mary Mitchell, among others.
