Beyond Fear

This is the French version of THE DESPERATE HOURS, except it doesn't have Fredric March or Humphrey Bogart or anything else to merit much attention. Basic story is that Bouquet gets some gangster information inadvertently. The mobsters find out where he lives and take over his house. He is on the outside, and they threaten his family unless he shows up. He promises he won't talk if they allow him to speak to his wife every 30 minutes. The wife's brother finds out about the situation and alerts the police. Some suspense, a couple of turns, but that's about it.
