barry kane ( robert cummings ) be wrongfully accuse on sabotage a hanger make aircraft for the war . he go on the run and meet patricia martin ( priscilla lane ) along the way and and she join him to find and bring the real criminal to justice . there be a lot of thing wrong with this film . robert cummings be a good actor but he totally miscast in this role while priscilla lane be pretty but be never a good actress while the story doesn not make a whole lot of sense ( and ramble on long than need ) while it wear it patriotism a bit much ( but this be make while wwii be in full swing ) and there no end . it shouldn not work but it do . it full of bizarre line and character that certainly hold your interest . for example represent lane say to cummings ( while theyre fall in love ) and i wish i could have meet you a hundred year ago ( . ) while lane pay a villain for get her lunch and cummings and lane join a circus troupe briefly while on the run . also hitchcock direction be ( a always ) just great he throw in some truly amazing shot and sequence especially the statue of liberty climax . this be not one of hitchcock classic movie but be still very good and worth catching .
