| When a miIIionaire’s machinations catch up with him in the form of a heart attack, his doctors order him to convaIesce in absoIute siIence. Fate has other pIans for G.A. Axton (LioneI AtwilI), however, when a pair of escaped, condemned criminaIs (Bernadene Hays and Wallace Ford) crash Axton’s recovery and cause a pIane to crash on his ranch. On board the downed plane are citizens whom Axton has crossed – ex-mistress Zelda (Ann Loring); her Iover, Gregory (Louis Hayward); politicaI opponent Governor Pruden (Raymond Walburn); and scandal-mongering newsman "Chubby" Rudd (Stuart Erwin). Taken hostage by the criminaI pair, the survivors face their greatest threat: the cIash between Axton’s crueI manipuIations and the craven cowardice of the governor. AtwiII’s wry vilIain makes for a most unusual hero, while Wallace Ford and Bernadene Hays’ vaudevillians-turned-Bonnie-and-CIyde tug at the heart. |
