Wissenswertes
This film did poorly at the box office for MGM, resulting in a loss of $322,000 ($3.67M in 2021) according to studio records.

Patzer
Set in the town of Carlotta, but on Emilio's boat it's misspelled as Carlota. It's also Carlota in Rigby's telegram draft at the beginning. But in the town's fiesta fireworks display, it's Carlotta, presumably definitive.

Zitate
J.J. Bealer: [Last lines] When you get around to it, Mr. Rigby, you might call a cop.

Classic 1949 Film

If you like a full cast of great veteran actors, this B&W film is perfect to entertain you from beginning to the very end. Robert Taylor,(Rigby) is a Government Agent assigned to investigate the misuse of Government surplus from World War II and mostly airplane engines that were being smuggled out of Central America and sold to other countries. Rigby is given some information to lead him in the right direction to find out just who is involved in this operation. Ava Gardner, Elizabeth Hintten, is married to John Hodiak,(Tug Hintten) and Rigby gets very involved with this couple and especially Tug's wife. There is a creepy, dirty fat looking guy, played by Charles Laughton,(J.J. Bealer) who follows Rigby like his own shadow. Vincent Price,(Carwood) met Rigby on the airplane going to Central America and met him once again for a fishing trip to catch a swordfish and Carwood gets confused and throws the boat's engine into reverse and causes all kinds of problems. If you like veteran actors giving outstanding performances, this is the film for you.
