The Perfect Crime
1955•NR•20m•6.7•Released
Drama
In this short National Safety Council film, the perfect crime is presented as excess speed. Accidents at high speed often results in deaths and are rarely investigated like the robbery of a corner grocery shown at the beginning of the film. The film ends with a plea to support the costs of new modern roads.
