Guided by Director John Ford (The Informer, The Lost Patrol), their juvenile, helter-skelter quest roams two hemispheres, seldom loses its bearings. By thrusting Hollywood's dreamiest-eyed glamor girl smack up against a methodical machine-gunning of a screaming mass of helpless men and women, Director Ford shows modern war technique in outlines no cinemagoer can fail to comprehend.
