WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

MartinHafer Because this film was made by Universal Studios, it is slickly made and has a decent cast. In this sense, it's an excellent picture. Unfortunately, it's terribly written and has a plot that seems like it's from a cheap B-movie from a 3rd rate studio!When the film begins, Nick (Cesar Romero) is a thief working with his gang to steal some bonds. Later, the gang disbands but Nick isn't about to end his wicked ways. After all, everything Nick does it for Nick. Later, he meets a lady crook--though I immediately thought she was a plant...which is what she turned out to be. Nick in enraged and murders her boss and frames her for it. But does the plot end there? No...not wanting to leave well enough alone, the writer is only about halfway through the movie and includes some incredible and ludicrous story...such as the pair being in a plane crash, a nice doctor (Walter Pidgeon) rescuing her and Nick and the lady being sent to death row! As I said, it's all ludicrous...and impossible to believe that it's even remotely possible.The bottom line is that everyone in the film did a nice job on screen. Even the relatively unknown Tala Birell is quite good. But the plot is just dumb...really, really dumb. And what you're left with is a film that's watchable but only just...

mark.waltz Tala Birell is a woman accused of murder who becomes involved with a gangster (Cesar Romero) hiding his true identity. While making an escape, their plane crashes, and they are tended to by doctor Walter Pidgeon. Country bumpkin Walter Brennan makes it clear he don't trust these city slickers, and before you know it, the police are descending down upon the doctor's abode to get their hands on these two wanted people. Pidgeon, unsure of the truth about dark lady Birell, sticks by her side as she faces the death penalty. This is obviously a generic plot line with some interesting character performances and some singing by Pidgeon, but not much else to recommend it. The result is extremely predictable, one of those bottom-of-the-bill features that really deserved to be there, and a leading lady obviously not destined for bigger things.

shhedges This movie does not know what it is. It starts out as a crime drama, then becomes a detective story, a romance, a comedy and a film noir. Cesar Romero, Walter Pidgeon and Walter Brennan are good actors, but the female lead (played by Tala Birell) varies between average and terrible.The basic plot is that Cesar Romero is a small time crook who pulls of a big job (stealing bonds). Birell is brought in from Europe by the insurance company to try and find out where the bonds are hidden. So far the movie is a good watch and believable.Then there is a plane crash (but all survive with minor injuries) and now Birell is wanted for murder. In comes the doctor who just happens to be on vacation right where the plane crashed.She becomes his love interest. From here on the movie goes down hill.If you have nothing to do one evening (and no one to watch a movie with) it is worth watching, but don't watch it with friends because they will laugh at you.The movie suffers from trying to cater to too many tastes and ends up satisfying no one. The ending is obvious, and you know exactly what is going to happen.
