13 East Street is a serviceable B thriller. A quickie quota with an American guest star.
It starts off with a man robbing a jewellery store and being chased by the police. He is caught, sentenced and escapes when he is being transported to prison with another convict called Joey.
Joey introduces the man to his boss Larry and is accepted as a gang member. They gang are involved in various robberies. The man is Inspector Blake an undercover policeman whose job is to infiltrate this gang and pass information about their activities to another undercover policeman who is always hanging around nearby.
However one person in the gang has suspicions about Blake as he thinks he has seen him before. The story is rather clumsy in its execution. There is a scene where Blake's wife and their neighbour nearly bump into him.
Out of all the actors it is Dora Bryan that stands out the most.
