6/10
Sequel
9 June 2010
Warning: Spoilers
The earlier 'Breakaway' (1955) was probably a hit as this is a sequel (or were they made back-to-back?) and it was released around about the same time. It has Tom Conway and Michael Balfour returning as Private Detective Tom 'Duke' Martin and his friend/stooge Barney Wilson. The main plot is about the counterfeiting of rare stamps including a valuable one from Barbados. Tom Conway is called onto the case and flies to England from America. As usual he keeps bumping into some very beautiful women along the way, including secretary Jean Larson (played by Delphi Lawrence). He eventually solves the crime and if you liked the first one you should like this as it has the usual Baker/Berman private detective action formula, which they later used on 'The Saint' with Roger Moore. Pretty good!
