...Parisian rip who bawls out this ditty, 70-year-old stage & screen Actress Ethel Grimes does a vigorous job that comes nearest to giving the show the comedy it badly needs.

Most of the chase takes place on wheels. In the first automobile is a sleek stickup man (Patric Knowles) who has absconded with a fat U.S. Army payroll. Close behind come an Army lieutenant (Robert Mitchum) and a mysterious young woman (Jane Greer). In the third car is Mitchum's superior officer (William Bendix).
