Mary Turner gets a three year prison sentence for a crime she didn’t commit. Once released, she plots to get back at the man responsible for her conviction.

Quote:
Although this is clearly a play adaptation, the script is a particularly fine one and the young Crawford’s performance is simply superb – this is pure actress rather than star personality. Robert Armstrong plays Joe, a good time racketeer, who takes on Mary Turner (Crawford) as a business associate, when she makes it clear she does not want to be his amour. Mary is smart – falsely sent to prison for a crime she didn’t commit, she studied law while in the clink, and is now seeking revenge by using the letter of the law to get away with petty larceny. With Mary at the helm, Joe and his entourage are sailing sweetly.

Part of Mary’s revenge is to seduce the son of the man who falsely accused her into marriage, which she does. But she falls for the guy at the same time- Douglass Montgomery in a strong performance that supports Crawford’s every step of the way. He only has six scenes but makes the most of them. Montgomery and Crawford are an appealing couple and one wonders why they didn’t make more films together.

This is one of the very best of the early talkies – don’t miss

The post Sam Wood – A Day at the Races (1937) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

The U.S. Cavalry knows that traveling the unmapped Arizona Territory canyons and trails in search of a woman kidnapped by Apaches could mean riding into a trap. So they ask the help of Ward Kinman, a prospector and scout who knows both the terrain and the ways of the warring tribesmen. Nearly a decade after Billy the Kid, Robert Taylor saddled up a second time and portrayed Kinman in Ambush, the film that began his steady string of work in a genre that suited him like a Colt .45 tucked easy into hip leather. Marguerite Roberts (True Grit) offers a script filled with blazing action and romantic subplots. Among the co-stars: Chief Thundercloud (Tonto in The Lone Ranger serials of 1938 and 1939). From Warner Brothers!

Synopsis:
General Dennis of the US Force in England in World War II finds that he must order his planes deeper and deeper into Germany to prevent the production of military jet planes that will turn the tide of battle to the Germans.

Adapted from a stage play, it attempts to look at the challenges of command in the political arena.
