Featured review
Poor Jackie Gleason who thought I'm sure he was getting a break in Escape From
Crime. But all we see of the Great One is a few minutes at the beginning of the
film before Richard Travis gets his parole.
Travis gets a parole with the usual restrictions. When he gets out he discovers he's a father.. Travis, Julie Bishop, and their kid plan to settle down once he can get a job as a photographer a trade he learned in stir.
He does get one with Frank Wilcox's paper, but he runs into his old hoodlum pals who keep turning up.
The film moves at blinding speed to cover up all that was lost in the editing. Warner Brothers used a meat cleaver approach.
Sub par product from the brother's B picture unit.
