...Mitchum is an American who killed his first man at the age of 13 to avenge his father's death. He ran away to Mexico and grew up a pistolero in the service of a provincial dictator. While he says he is from Missouri, he sounds like an Aztec exchange student after six terms at C.C.N.Y. He fords the Rio Grande on a mission to the U.S. for his Chihuahuan master (Pedro Armendariz). There he breaks a leg, is forced to stay over for two months, and suddenly he is the most sought-after man in town...
...Dublin midnight in Groome's Hotel, a haunt of actors and other free souls, the grog flowed as from a well.

Mitchum, of course, has only to scoot home and catch a quick shower in order to nest down with the missing flyer's spouse (May Britt). Instead, the red-blooded rat turns true blue; he bellylands his plane, heaps Philips over his shoulder and reels (about 25) back to their own lines. There Philips' repentant wife waves disconsolate farewell to Mitchum...
