Wide Boy is a 1952 British second feature ('B') crime film directed by Ken Hughes and starring Susan Shaw, Sydney Tafler and Ronald Howard. It was Hughes' feature directorial debut. He later called it "pretty terrible".
In Ken Hughes’s simple, compact, gripping noir, Wide Boy, the title character isn’t the widest boy of the bunch but lucks out when he stumbles upon a neglected purse in a bar and finds a potential goldmine inside.
O título, no jargão da polícia britânica da época, define um vigarista cujas atividades criminosas são menores e na fronteira legal, mas o personagem do filme parece esticar a definição. Benny rouba uma bolsa de Melissa Stribling e descobre nela uma carta comprometedora de seu namorado Colin Tapley, que é um cirurgião rico e casado.
