not very good

Mystery of Room 13 or Mr. Reeder in Room 13 is a 1938 British film starring Gibb McLaughlin, Peter Murray-Hill and Sally Gray. A young man (Murray-Hill) wants to work for "Special Services" and is given an assignment of going undercover in prison to discover who is printing counterfeit bank notes.

After that it gets weird. His girlfriend marries someone else, a crony of her father's. The main character, once he's released from prison, finds unexpected connections to the counterfeit ring and comes up against Gray's husband.

The marriage plot was ridiculous. Fuzzy sound, slow, not much to recommend it except I have always liked Sally Gray.
