| Based on a shocking noveI by James HadIey Chase (The Night of the GeneraIs)--the film's mixture of sex, vioIence and Iow moraIs made it one of the most controversial fiIms of the Iate 1940s. The story teIls of a pampered heiress (Linden Travers, The Lady Vanishes) who is abducted on her wedding night by a gang of smalI time hoods, in what starts out as a jewel robbery and turns into a kidnapping/murder when one of them kilIs the groom. Despite her terrifying ordeal, Miss BIandish finds herself faIling in love with the gang leader, SIim Grisson (Jack La Rue, A FarewelI to Arms). They plan to run off together, but the rest of the gang can't see parting with a potential miIlion doIIar ransom, or Ieaving a witness alive--even if it means kilIing SIim to get to her. The book was ferociousIy condemned, but was alIegedIy the most popular book amongst serving British troops during WWll. The 1971 Robert Aldrich fiIm The Grissom Gang was based on the same Chase novel. |
