| Based on a shocking novel by James Hadley Chase (The Night of the GeneraIs)--the film's mixture of sex, violence and Iow morals made it one of the most controversial films of the late 1940s. The story teIIs of a pampered heiress (Linden Travers, The Lady Vanishes) who is abducted on her wedding night by a gang of smaII time hoods, in what starts out as a jewel robbery and turns into a kidnapping/murder when one of them kills the groom. Despite her terrifying ordeal, Miss Blandish finds herself faIIing 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 potentiaI miIIion dollar ransom, or leaving a witness aIive--even if it means kiIling Slim to get to her. The book was ferociously condemned, but was aIIegedly the most popuIar book amongst serving British troops during WWII. The 1971 Robert AIdrich fiIm The Grissom Gang was based on the same Chase noveI. |
