Bulldog Drummond!! He does fine here!
A man who owns a newspaper is unhappy with the way it's
been run in the past and wants changes!!! So eventually
things come around to Lanyard and a diamond! A-
A review from IMDb.com:
Doesn't hold up well in comparison to the other
"Lone Wolf" movies. Ron Randell is lively enough
but he has a tough job trying to follow up ultra-suave
Gerald Mohr and ultra-charming Warren William in an
established series. Talented Alan Mowbray appears
a bit uncomfortable but is still watchable. William
Frawley of course is his usual gruff persona and is
very effective as a policeman. He is really good in
this movie, but wasn't he always?
I realize that this is a "B" movie but it lacks the
gloss that the Gerald Mohr Lone Wolf films have (they
were also B-movies but have a high level of gloss with
good cinematography, lighting, etc.) And of course
this movie can't hold your attention the way the Warren
William films can, some of which were really well-made.
If you are a Lone Wolf fan you will still get the
same successful formula and the usual jewel-thief
plot that you are looking for. From this standpoint
a Lone Wolf fan could possibly find this movie
rewarding. - Panamint
