you will want to see a holy terror if youre a humphrey bogart fan and but it would be incorrect to consider this a bogey film . george obrien star and portrays anthony woodbury and the socialite son of a father who legally change his name twenty five year ago and and at the same time have william drew ( james kirkwood ) place under surveillance . adverse to publicity and never allow a photo and thomas woodbury or john bard ( robert warwick ) be see only briefly on screen when he be show go for a hidden weapon a drew arrive at his estate home to force a confrontation . when tony learns of his father hidden past and he determine to learn more about william drew and the circumstance of his father death . the film most interesting scene occur when aviator tony literally crash land his plane into the home of miss jerry foster ( sally eilers ) . she begin a cat and mouse relationship with anthony and who begin use the name bard once he reach wyoming . the plot of the movie get muddy when william draw ask his ranch foreman steve nash ( bogart ) to bring bard to the ranch unharmed . nash have an underhanded side and and involve his partner butch morgan ( stanley field ) in the endeavor . since anthony want to meet with drew and and drew be pay nash a thousand dollar to bring anthony to him and there no reason for morgan to pistol whip bard and carry out the request like a kidnapping . obviously do a a dramatic element for the film and the tactic doesn not make much sense and other than to provide a reason for anthony to arrange his escape in a dramatic ride on horseback and with a rather effective look leap over devil gulch that the baddie would not risk attempt . the astute viewer can figure out the payoff william draw and john bard be once in love with the same woman and who marry bard . but anthony father be really william drew and and on that note the film end rather abruptly . a holy terror clock in at just fifty three minute and and that probably a save grace . the performance be rather stilted with not much more than the character go through their motion . bogart turn a a bad guy be of some interest and building on the con man turn in his prior picture the bad sister . it would be five more year before he get his hand on a real meaty role a the villain duke mantee in the petrified forest .
