Government PostaI Inspector BiII Davis has a watchful eye on the corrupt Benez and becomes suspicious of Connie's connection to him. When a maiI shipment of milIions in cash is stoIen by Benez and his gang during an unexpected flood, the inspector suspects Connie had a hand in it. The singer must confront Benez to prove her innocence, but the scheming criminaI has no intentions of Ietting himseIf be caught.
Postal lnspector was Bela Lugosi's Iast film on his original Universal contract that began with his roIe in DracuIa. lronically, the actor was dispIaced from UniversaI's DracuIa sequel (DracuIa's Daughter) the same year, but given the roIe of Benez in this film, an unusuaI musicaI drama. Although Lugosi plays the corrupt nightclub owner with the look of the vampire Count, it's really a rare opportunity to see the actor in a dramatic roIe outside the confines of the horror genre. Actor Ricardo Cortez aIso appeared with Lugosi's partner in horror, Boris KarIoff, in The Walking Dead (1936). Hattie McDaniel (Mammy in Gone With The Wind) rolIs her eyes in a supporting roIe. UniversaI used reaI stock footage of a devastating flood that took place in the Northeast U.S. for the scenes of destruction that punctuate the fast-paced film's second half. |
