Destino la cárcel

School teacher Dorothy Patrick is staying at the mountain cabin of her fiance, Dr. Robert Rockwell, when wounded Richard Benedict stumbles in. He's running out on his gang, with $80,000 in cash. Miss Patrick tends his wounds and asks no questions, which confuses him. When she sends him on his way, it's with the money hidden. He makes it to the hospital, writes a will in her favor, and dies. When the news gets out, all the gossips and her prospective mother-in-law think the worst of her. So do various gangsters, who want the money.

It's directed by George Blair. After a decade as an assistant director, he started directing some of Republic's numerous B movies, often four or five a year. In the early 1950s, he switched to directing television. He's best remembered for directing most of the Superman TV show starring George Reeves. Lookng at this movie, I was struck by the similarity of compositions and camera set-ups to that show. I guess his attitude was that if it ain't broke, don't fix it. With Robert Armstrong, Jimmy Lydon, Larry J. Blake, and Claire DuBrey.
