Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Star-in-the-making Laurence Harvey receives third billing in the British There is Another Sun. Set in the rarefied world of fairground auto racing, the film stars Susan Shaw as Lillian, a stranded carny performer who attaches herself to a pair of young men. One of them, played by Maxwell Reed, is known only as "Racer," a suitable cognomen; the other is Maguire (Laurence Harvey), an aspiring boxer. Anxious to finance his racing activities, the desperate Racer pulls off a robbery, for which Maguire is held responsible. Torn between both men, Lillian finally chooses the "right" one -- at least so far as the script is concerned. There is Another Sun is better known by its American title, Wall of Death.
