Default A few crime films

Hello,
I was reading a thread posted on 'Ask a Film Question' all about crime noir and 'spiv' films. It mentioned a few films, some of which I have but I thought I'd put out a few feelers for the missing titles. They are;
Mine Own Executioner1947
Black Memory 1947
Dual Alibi 1947
Temptation Harbour 1947
A Gunman Has Escaped
No Way Back 1949
Give Us This Day 1950
Any help with these would be fantastic!! I have loads to swap or am happy to pay.
Cheers, John.

Grebmoolb, I find it hard to believe that you are not aware that Give Us This Day is available on a superb DVD released by Allday Entertainment / Image under its other title, Christ in Concrete:-

Amazon.com: Christ in Concrete: DVD: Sam Wanamaker,Lea Padovani,Kathleen Ryan,Charles Goldner,Bonar Colleano,William Sylvester,George Pastell,Philo Hauser,Sid James,Karel Stepanek,Ina De La Haye,Rosalie Crutchley,Ronan O'Casey,Robert Rietty,Charles M

It features a commentary with the screenwriter's wife, the original novel's son and a historian and is of superb quality.

Perhaps less people are aware there is a commercial tape available of Mine Own Executioner. You can buy it new:-

Amazon.com: Mine Own Executioner: Video: Anthony Kimmins,Burgess Meredith,Dulcie Gray,Michael Shepley,Christine Norden,Kieron Moore,Barbara White,Walter Fitzgerald,Edgar Norfolk,John Laurie,Martin Miller,Clive Morton,Joss Ambler,Jack Raine,Laurence H

There is also an older tape on Amazon sellers for about $5.
