Comment/Synopsis
A radio star gets involved with the theft of monkey statues and then murder. This is a strange mix of crime drama and the last part is a musical radio show. It comes out as awkward on both counts. This was the penultimate film made by Carole Landis though not released in America until a couple of years after her death. Avril Angers and Terry Thomas were good British performers, but there was not much they could do with this material.
