- GoofsWhen detective Dwyer finishes up using his acetylene torch to loosen the metal running board of the getaway car, he immediately grabs the running board with his hands--a very foolish move as the still hot surface would certainly inflict severe burns.
- Quotes
Bonnie: Hello, Mr. Ferrara. Having a nightcap?
Ferrara: Oh, hello.
Bonnie: Betcha don't remember me. I'm a friend of a friend of yours, Tom Dwyer.
Ferrara: I know, I've been waitin' here for him for half an hour. He told me to meet him.
Bonnie: If he ever kept a date it would be a mirage.
Ferrara: [hmph] You mean a miracle.
Bonnie: Nope. A miracle is something you believe but never see. A mirage is something you see but brother, don't ever believe it.

This film has a good cast and starts well. It hooks you in with the Jarvis gang robbery and we follow the getaway car as it is chased through the country until disaster strikes. The criminal gang are all very convincing. But they don't last long! The rest of the cast are all good - I personally like gangster Sheldon Leonard ('Wires' MacGuire) and I felt sorry for bimbo-babe Adele Mara (Bonnie) who is always left standing alone somewhere while Barry shoots off on another task. She provides the comedy factor along with some of the dialogue. It's snappy and funny throughout. Donald Barry comes across as a James Cagney type character and he is just on the right side of annoying - he's likable and carries the film but its a fine line that he is treading.
There is a lot of action in this short film and the pace and the dialogue make it an entertaining experience. You may guess where the money is hidden but there is a twist in the story that you may not expect.
