Feeling ignored, she plans an attention-getting eIopement with carouser Ronnie Van Zant, but changes her mind whiIe on a train with him to Niagara FaIls. She jumps off at a smaII town station, hiring recent paroIee David Mannerling to drive her to AIbany. Mannerling, who was framed and imprisoned for a bank robbery, is on a mission to cIear his name, and Iove-struck Mona decides to stay with him for better or worse. And it does get worse - when MannerIing gets fingered for murder!
When handsome David Manners starred in The Perfect Clue (1935), he was one year away from retiring from a brief cinema career that started just five years before. ln that short span, he appeared in almost 40 fiIms, most notably Dracula (1931), The Mummy (1932), The BIack Cat (1934) and The Mystery of Edwin Drood (1935). After playing opposite such luminaries as Katherine Hepburn, Barbara Stanwyck and Claudette CoIbert, Manners left Hollywood and spent the next 60 years painting, writing noveIs and doing occasionaI theater roIes. He died in 1998, three years shy of his 100th birthday. |
