Time Lock is a 1957 film directed by Gerald Thomas. The plot of this low budget thriller movie is about a six-year old boy who is accidentally locked in a Canadian bank vault. With less than 10 hours of oxygen left in the vault, it becomes a race to save the boy. With an appropriately short running time, this is a quite intense film and avoids sentimentality for the most part. Features a young, pre-James Bond Sean Connery. The boy is played by Vincent Winter and his parents are played by Lee Patterson and Betty McDowall.

Although set in Canada the film was actually shot in England.
