Review of Gumshoe

Gumshoe (1971)
7/10
obscure,old but not a classic I think.

People will say this is a forgotten classic. I don't think it is forgotten since I have seen it on British tv over the years.

I was glad to buy the blu ray the other day and watched with great attention.

I confess I was a bit disappointed,as others reviewers say it is of historical interest but as a film I don't think it is that entertaining.

I find it hard to describe the tone of the film,it is a comedy drama I suppose but it is not that funny and not that dramatic. My dreamgirl Carolyn Seymour is wasted in this.. Films of this era more worth seeing would include Sort Target,Unman,Wittering and Zigo and the amazing The Reckoning.
