(*Fave movie quote*) - "It takes only one false move to make a man a crook."
Now 80+ years old - "Bulldog Drummond Escapes" is a fairly entertaining crime-investigation drama set in the "damsel-in-distress" mode.
A dashing, young, Ray Milland plays the Captain Hugh "Bulldog" Drummond character with considerable vitality and gung-ho enthusiasm.
Why Milland's character was nicknamed "Bulldog" was never explained - But, I thought that a much more appropriate moniker for this love-struck dude would have been "Puppydog".
With its story's location set out in the foggy, English countryside - It really killed me that as Drummond was driving down a totally deserted road - (Right out of the blue) - A very complicated case for him to solve (literally) fell right into his lap.
All-in-all - This brisk-paced, 65-minute Crime/Drama/Romance was an enjoyable view.
