LIONEL JEFFERIES
A small-time thief on the run from the law is pursued by over-zealous police officers masquerading as milkmen and postmen, framed for murder by a homicidal housewife, and built up by the media to sound like an infamous criminal mastermind. Every step he takes carries him further into a life of crime, and it looks like there's no way out for Gino, but when he teams up with a gutsy typist on the run from her own unfulfilling life, the two of them may find a way to turn the media attention to their advantage
QUOTES:
Max: My wife says I'm crazy and ought to be locked up; perhaps she's right! God she's beautiful! Wish I could see her. She won't let me in the house without a lawyer. I mean, is thats not a proper marriage is it? ... It's the nights I can't take. It was allright at first, I stayed with friends. But you know what it's like when you start falling over and frightening the children.
