This is a stiff from the git-go. When Emory Parnell, who wasn't half-bad, has 4th billing, you know where it's going to go. Downhill is the only direction. Sheldon Leonard is fairly much a somnambulist, making no effort to remain awake. Michael O'Shea never got off the ground in the movies and too bad about that; this role didn't help him. Ditto Nancy Coleman. The premise isn't worth going into. I've forgotten it already (sort of a weak sister's version of mob violence (the weakest mob I've ever portrayed) promoting a populist vision of how the country should be. (A distant relative of the current scene in this country.) All in all, nothing about it is very good but the worst piece of business is the horrible soundtrack. If I could have turned down the music, I would've. But then I'd have heard none of the dialogue. Not a bad idea a that. My 2 cents: it's worthless.
