BULLDOG DRUMMOND IN AFRICA(1938)
In the set: 100 Greatest Mystery Classics
An interesting twist here, John Barrymore as
the Captain is gone, but returning as Phyllis
Clavering is Heather Angel! But one thing that
stays the same, Drummond and Phillis are still
trying to get married! The basic story is that
The Colonel is kidnapped and taken to Africa!
Drummand and crew follow!! B+
A review from IMDb.com:
The opening ruse to keep Drummond & Co. from
finding Adventure and to find Marriage wears
thin after 10 minutes or so, but this potboiler
soon picks up speed - the plane taking them all
to Morocco was slower.
J. Carroll Naish as the baddie kidnaps the
goodie from Scotland Yard, H. B. Warner for
his state secrets, flies him out of the country
with Drummond in pursuit. I won't give the
game away as to whether he, Algy, Tenney and
Phyllis succeed in releasing Warner, properly
chastise the baddies (including the cub
Anthony Quinn) and fly back home into a
happy ending - you'll have to bite your
nails and watch it!
At times utterly predictable, even with
a rather savage lion in some shots - what
did they have to do to make it so mad - but
as usual a very watchable entry in this
series. - Spondonman
