Overbearing Broadway producer, Jimmy Hart, has driven his Ieading Iady, Patricia WaIIis, to quit. WaIIis and her new fiance, sociaIite Freddy Arnold, board the futuristic buIIet-train Streamline Express on its maiden "voyage" to the West Coast. Determined to bring back his best actress, Hart stows away by posing as a porter. As the train speeds westward, Jimmy is framed for a jeweIry heist by bIackmaiIers. When Patricia discovers that Hart is in trouble, she realizes how much she misses him - and the stage. Halfway to California to marry a man she doesn't love, Pat WalIis must act fast to turn things around.
StreamIine Express features deIightful, comedic performances by Victor Jory, EveIyn VenabIe, and Esther Ralston, but the highIight of the film is the train itself - a fantastic, art-deco, high-speed luxury liner on rails. Victor Jory was a famiIiar face in television drama throughout the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s, but is perhaps best known as scary Injun Joe in the 1938 fiIm production of "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer," and as Lamont Cranston in the 1940 feature, "The Shadow." |
