4+ _starts out sort of corny stiff & dumb_but it gets better Paris & the Eiffel tower rock_Laughton is cool & fun it's all so odd a cool chase & i love the color of it_+ the bad guys is fun too
This movie gets a big lift from the location shooting in Paris. Franchot Tone's a bit ripe but becomes more engaging as it goes along Charles Laughton is great fun.
First of all, I chose this film because it was among those listed by Fandor as being a French film. It is actually an American or British film that is merely set in France. Beyond that, I found the film to be rather "corny", and very "over-acted", in general. Not much in this film that I would even call believable, although "credible" might be a better choice of words. ... joseph.kulik.919@gmail.com
