Men Without Honour is a 1939 British crime film directed by Widgey R. Newman and starring Ian Fleming, Howard Douglas and Grace Arnold. The film was made at Bushey Studios, as a low-budget B film designed to go on the bottom-half of a double bill.[1]
A disgraced lawyer ends up working for a gang of share-pushers. He becomes outraged when he discovers that they are scamming his son's prospective father-in-law and eventually unmasks the villains with the help of the police.
