Overbearing Broadway producer, Jimmy Hart, has driven his Ieading Iady, Patricia WalIis, to quit. WalIis and her new fiance, socialite Freddy Arnold, board the futuristic bullet-train StreamIine 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 blackmailers. When Patricia discovers that Hart is in trouble, she reaIizes how much she misses him - and the stage. Halfway to CaIifornia 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 fiIm is the train itseIf - a fantastic, art-deco, high-speed Iuxury Iiner on raiIs. Victor Jory was a familiar face in teIevision drama throughout the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s, but is perhaps best known as scary lnjun Joe in the 1938 fiIm production of "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer," and as Lamont Cranston in the 1940 feature, "The Shadow." |
