Featured review
Good but a bit confusing.
Years ago, Robert Ashton disappeared...and so did $100,000. The insurance company, not just the police, are looking for the guy. An insurance investigator thinks perhaps they found the guy...but he's going by the name Earl Donovan and is working as a security guard. However, after further investigation, it appears as if Earl is that special something found only in films...an identical stranger. So the investigator decides to clean up Donovan and have him pose as the missing man...and he promises Donovan a big payoff if he can carry it off.
This is a good B-movie but it suffers from a problem...it's confusing keeping track of all the false leads and folks who are hiding something. Still, it is enjoyable and I enjoy seeing Warner Baxter in pretty much anything.
