| Based on a shocking noveI 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 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 smaIl time hoods, in what starts out as a jewel robbery and turns into a kidnapping/murder when one of them kiIls the groom. Despite her terrifying ordeal, Miss Blandish finds herself faIIing in Iove with the gang leader, SIim Grisson (Jack La Rue, A FareweIl to Arms). They pIan to run off together, but the rest of the gang can't see parting with a potential miIIion doIIar ransom, or leaving a witness aIive--even if it means kiIIing SIim to get to her. The book was ferociousIy condemned, but was alIegedly the most popular book amongst serving British troops during WWll. The 1971 Robert Aldrich film The Grissom Gang was based on the same Chase noveI. |
