Well I have to say, this was the most interesting mystery flick that made no sense whatsoever that I've ever seen. I actually got more out of viewer posts on this board than the movie itself. That happens every now and then, perhaps one in every three hundred or so films. I'd be willing to give this another go, but it came in a mystery film boxed set of two hundred fifty pictures, and I'm going to get to all the rest of those first.
It's uncanny - the picture holds your attention the whole time, and I had to figure something was going to come out of this to tie the whole thing together. Very mysterious, very sleek, thirty five dollars to bail out the cat - that's it! I'm not going to get pretentious and say I spotted all the future stars in their cameos, just Burgess Meredith as the bartender, and he could have been Leonid Kinskey just as easily.
Clever stuff here - The Crusaders, the Blue Angel, the Mohawk Political Club, and Molloy (Franchot Tone) named the special something or other. What were the papers hidden in the museum art? I don't know. Neither will you. Maybe next time.
