Details

• Release Year: 1954
• Genre: Crime, Mystery
• Plot: OSCAR AWARD® nominee John Ireland (All the King's Men) co-directed and stars in this early effort from the legendary low-budget producer Roger Corman (Dementia 13). On the run and desperate for a way to get out of the country, accused killer Frank Webster (Ireland) thinks he has found one in a young woman en route to an international road race. Dorothy Malone (an OSCAR® winner for Written on the Wind) is Connie Adair, who is hijacked along with her Jaguar as Frank makes his last-ditch run for the Mexican border. Corman wrote the original story for this high-octane thriller (whose title was used for the 2001 Vin Diesel blockbuster), photographed by his frequent collaborator, Floyd Crosby.
