It's hard making a living, and for downtrodden cosmetics salesman John Cummings (Richard Todd), it gets even harder when his brand-new car is pinched. Drowning in debt and desperate to prove to his wife that he's not a failure, he'll stop at nothing to get his wheels back. But when his snooping ticks off the gang's ruthless boss (Sellers), a final showdown between the two men becomes inevitable. The only question is, who will drive away?

You know those initially unremarkable films that are first good, then very good, and then become absolutely great? This is one of them. In Never Let Go, it's simmering from the very beginning, the story combines a classic western plot about a stolen horse (Ford) with a thick noir atmosphere, the erratically evil Peter Sellers lets loose with terror and succeeds, the proverbial clouds are gathering and the proverbial storm is approaching, and it's probably going to be a big one. And it is. The last ten minutes, that's what I call tension escalated to the maximum! Guillermin's direction, Barry's music and the crazy looks of two men determined to do everything... A great experience, for which I add the fifth star. ()
