Information Received

Information Received is a 1961 British second feature ('B')[1] crime film directed by Robert Lynn and starring Sabine Sesselmann, William Sylvester and Hermione Baddeley.

Drake, the leader of a robbery gang, brings American safe-cracker Johnny Stevens over to Britain for a job.

The police arrange for freelance adventurer Rick Hogan to impersonate Stevens in prison, hoping to lure Drake's gang out of hiding.

The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "This second feature packs in far more crime clichés – including an undulating femme fatale played by Sabina Sesselman and a bit of Rififi safe-cracking – than it can handle in 77 minutes.

William Sylvester plays the improbable hero with a nice blend of wry humour and conventional resourcefulness.
