Age: 75 years

Notable Cast: Robert Mitchum, Judy Greer
Duration: 1 hr, 11 min
Infractions: None.
Comments: A man narrowly escapes his pursuer in Veracruz, Mexico. Also, on the boat was a woman who claims she was conned by a man. They become allies to hunt the con artist.
RKO Pictures chose Mr. Mitchum over George Raft because they needed to boost the image of this simplistic film. Mitchum had just been arrested for the possession of marijuana, making him the latest "bad boy" of Hollywood! The film is decent with some comedy. There's a speeded-up car chase, also.
