[In a bar at the airport in Cairo, Charles Stark can be seen entering. Upon noticing a particular individual who is reading a newspaper, Stark approaches and sits down next to him. This is Mike Canelli]
Agent Charles Stark: Well, well.
[Canelli looks up.]
Agent Charles Stark: From New Orleans, Louisiana to the airport bar in Cairo, Egypt is a long way, even for a guy like Mike Canelli.
Mike Canelli: [smiles and folds his newspaper] Just like somebody said, it's a small world. Hello Charlie.
[Canelli and Stark shake hands.]
Agent Charles Stark: [returns the handshake] What are you doing in Cairo, Mike?
Mike Canelli: Oh, just a twenty minute stopover on my flight west.
Agent Charles Stark: It's been four years since I last saw you back home. What brings you all the way over here?
Mike Canelli: [puts his newspaper on the counter] Knocking around, having fun, trying to stay out of trouble.
Agent Charles Stark: [laughs] That I want to see. Where there's trouble, you'll find Mike Canelli.
Mike Canelli: What's your excuse for being here, Charlie?
Agent Charles Stark: Sorry, Mike, I'm on a confidential assignment, heading for Saudi Arabia.
Mike Canelli: [with interest] Sounds mysterious. But you always did go in for that cloak and dagger stuff.
Agent Charles Stark: Where are you bound for now, Mike?
[an intercom can be heard announcing a flight to Algiers, which is planning to leave soon.]
Mike Canelli: That's me, Charlie. I'm heading for my old stomping grounds, Algiers for a visit.
Agent Charles Stark: Look, Mike, I'm coming there myself in a couple of weeks. Forget I mentioned I'm on a job, will you? If we run into each other, we're strangers, okay?
Mike Canelli: Sure, Charlie? What do you got in Algiers?
Agent Charles Stark: Maybe nothing but a long dull tail job on a guy with a four-fingered right hand.
Mike Canelli: [nods and taps him with his newspaper] I'll be seeing you.
[Stark watches as Canelli turns to leave the bar]

Come With Me To The Casbah

George Raft blows into Algiers from Cairo to discover that the local police and the French spies are trying to track down a couple of hundred million in gold that's been missing since the Second World War. With an attitude of "what's that got to do with me?", he schedules an appointment with fellow American Richard McNamara, goes to his apartment, helps himself to a drink, and finds Irene Papas dead. He's spotted by Gianna Maria Canale, who describes him to the police, then refuses to identify him. With his passport held, he finds himself under suspicion of being involved with the missing gold.

In his last starring role (and Ray Enright's last movie as director), Raft finds himself irresistible to women, and bluffing his way through a murky situation. It's an interesting plot, and Raft's diffident performance matches that of his ill-defined character; the fact that it's never clear why he's in Algiers made me suspect early on that he was involved in more than a Wrong Man sort of way. This Hitchcockian tale has a lot to recommend it, but the short budget keeps it from being superior.
