Featured review
Wild Train Ride
By Whose Hand stars Ben Lyon as a reporter who makes a last minute decision to board a Los Angeles to San Francisco in pursuit of an escaped criminal and a story.
On the train he meets Barbara Weeks and they fall in love. But that's between two murders being committed.
Nat Pendleton who usually plays big dumb clucks plays it straight in this film. He's escaped police custody and is on the train to escape and get Dwight Frye who stooled him out. But also on the train is jeweler Kenneth Thomson also stabbed to death.
The film moves at a zippy pace and crams a lot of action in. Lyon's reporter is straight out of The Front Page which as we know set the standard for portrayal of the print media. It's a good programmer for a second feature.
