Il treno scomparso

Genevieve Tobin (Kate) leads a band of criminals. Theft is her speciality and she masterminds the plans. Inspector Jack Hulbert (Mike) knows he needs to stop her but he is in love with her, relentlessly pursuing her for a date as well as trying to catch her breaking the law. He is very creepy but the dialogue between them can be funny at times. Warning - this film does contain occasional British buffoonery - never an entertaining option.

Unfortunately, the film gets pretty boring and is only entertaining when Tobin is on screen. All the points in this film go to her. The film also has Noel Madison (Gregori) as one of the gang, who stands up to Tobin. He so looks like the leader of the Ant Hill Mob in the Wacky Races - perhaps it is the same person. As for Hulbert, wow, what a face! Is that really one of the UK's leading men - ha ha? It's a combination of Fred Astaire and Bruce Forsyth and I half expected him to churn out a catchphrase "all right, my luv....?"
