Walk East On Beacon Blu-Ray

G-man cleans out communist spies in the Cold War classic Walk East on Beacon, starring George Murphy (Border Incident), Finlay Currie (Bunny Lake Is Missing), Karel Št?pánek (Affair in Trinidad), and Virginia Gilmore (Western Union).

When it turns out that Eastern Bloc countries have obtained information about a top-secret space weapons program, federal agent Belden (Murphy) and his team must use all the latest technology—including wiretapping and video recording—to prevent Professor Kafer (Currie) from being kidnapped. Directed by Alfred L Werker (The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes), inspired by the real-life case of Soviet spies Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, and loosely based on FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover's own accounts of the case, Walk East on Beacon is a gripping portrayal of "century crime."
