DESCRIPTION:

Accepted into the Los Angeles Police Academy, cadets Chuck O’Flair (Ralph Meeker, Kiss Me Deadly), Harry Whenlon (Jeff Richards, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers) and Russ Hardley (Robert Horton, Wagon Train) pass the rigorous training program, but are soon bored with their humdrum assignments. After a grueling series of tests, they’re transferred to the LAPD’s elite motorcycle squad and begin to patrol the city. So when a routine traffic stop ends in Whenlon’s murder, O’Flair and Hardley set out to track down the killers: two truckers involved in a hijacking ring. One of the last features shot in the semi-documentary style popularized by The Naked City and Dragnet, Code Two is a police procedural highly regarded by motorcycle enthusiasts due to its scenes of vintage Harley Davidsons being put through their paces on off-road trails, obstacle courses and the mean streets of early ‘50s L.A.
