Poverty Row Cinema.The gold standard for quality B pics. I have Mondays off so this is a real treat drinking some red vino and watching your flix

[@arielfornari6595]

Red vino? Spanish wine? My favorite Spanish wine was "Manzanilla" from Càdiz province, white not red.

[@lizlocher3612]

Wish I had some red vino as well!! LUCKY!!!

[@statues3983]

vino tinto

[@NancySanders-om4ic]

Thank you,for showing this film,which was suspenseful,fun to watch.It was entertaining to see actors like Ms.Vale,who I've not seen before,and to see the other actors in their roles.

[@michaelregan3914]

This is a great movie to just relax and watch!

[@peter4Flags]

Thanks again PF for another wonderful movie 🙏

[@Wintermute909]

I think that maybe a sign of a good film is when they do something that doesn't that make total sense (plotholes, special effects failures etc) and the audience explains it away in their own minds. Edit: that was just an idle thought. This was a fantastic film!

[@randytracy1742]

With Roger Pryor, Virginia vale , Lionel Joyce,Duncan Reynaldo and Hugh Beaumont-chaos ensues after a government chemist embraces a stranger at the airport to Thea Thea. 4thwart enemy agents trailing her! What happens in Panama stays in Panama! Pryor.who usually appears in musical 🎵 comedy films,is in this espionage thriller for a change! Good flick to watch!

🍕🍕🍕Thank you 🍕 Nice to see 4 favorite players in this movie 🍕 A good week to you PizzaFlix 🍕🍕🍕

[@jimmcmannis3652]

Good to see Ward Cleaver 😊

[@mr.blazeblue]

I also think Hugh Beaumont (February 16th, 1910 - May 14th, 1982) was a very talented film noir actor. Watching this film, The Lady Confesses (1941) or Apology for Murder (1945) sort of makes me wonder how he wound up being cast as Ward Cleaver in the classic sitcom, Leave It to Beaver. I guess I'll never know. But just in case you didn't know: Hugh wasn't the first choice for the role. He replaced an actor by the name of Max Showalter after the pilot episode -- in September 1957. And the original nam3 of the series was something quite different: It's a Small World.

[@karenhill3970]

Very interesting. He got the part bc if his ​@@mr.blazeblueFatherly sweet personality it comes through in all his movies .....🦋I sure loved him

[@melvinscott9017]

Another great thriller with a wonderful cast.

[@uslines]

My preferred films with a few significant exceptions are all 30s, 40s, 50s povery row. Most countries had B film studios and they were all great.

[@dalanmanbros8311]

This was really a fun one! Thanks for all your efforts.

[@eshaibraheem4218]

[@Luvoldmovies-Kat.St.Aug.]

Great! Gonna watch this flic now . I’m a fan of Roger Pryor🤩🎭🎥📺👍

[@SamBroadway]

I have really been enjoying these old B movies.... This was a good one too

[@PorkChopJones]

During the car chase at the end I knew something was going to happen when the bad guys car went out of control you could hear the beginnings of the classic car crash sound effect used by 100's of movies over several decades. This is a great film that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Hugh Beaumont aka Leave It To Beaver's dad was very young when this film was made

[@Blayze1017]

Badass intro graphics!

[@arielfornari6595]

Great announcement!

[@wertherquartett]

She kisses an alleged brother the way you would never kiss a brother yet it goes over their heads.

[@PizzaFLIX]

That’s what confused me when I was watching the film and trying to write a synopsis.

[@karenhill3970]
