The Informer
CrimeDrama91 min
In 1922 Dublin, former IRA man Gypo Nolan sees a reward for information on his best friend and makes a choice that could buy him passage to America. Victor McLaglen is Gypo, a disgraced Republican drifting between pubs and back alleys, while Heather Angel’s Katie shares his plan to leave his bleak life behind. John Ford frames the story around the street-level tensions of the Irish War of Independence, with Preston Foster’s Frankie at the center of Gypo’s betrayal.
