This film's plot is reminiscent of a Tex Avery cartoon, with a series of unlikely events unfolding. Richard Arlen, a past-his-prime American actor, becomes entangled with a drug ring after receiving a package containing their stolen goods. As he navigates the situation, he teams up with a detective to capture the crooks. The film's distribution by 20th Century-Fox is attributed to the studio's need for more product to meet demand, as they were struggling to produce enough CinemaScope films to keep up with their exchanges and exhibitors.
Devil's Harbor
A cinematic blend of fanciful serendipity and dark, gritty noir, featuring Richard Arlen as an American actor navigating a role that's more suited to animation than a conventional film noir.
