Break in the Circle is a 1955 British crime film directed by Val Guest and starring Forrest Tucker, Eva Bartok, Marius Goring and Guy Middleton.

[1] It was written by Guest based on the 1951 novel The Break in The Circle by Robin Estridge (as Philip Loraine), and produced by Michael Carreras for Hammer Films.

[3] The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "Break in the Circle is a schoolboy adventure yarn, moving quite fast along heavily American-influenced lines.

The characters are stock inventions and are played as such, and the dialogue (notably that of the hero) deals too freely in a stale wisecracking idiom.

"[5] Picture Show wrote: "Exciting drama of the rescue of an elderly scientist from Germany by a young man who lets nothing stand in' his way.
