No Orchids for Miss Blandish

“SHOCKING as a book! SENSATIONAL as a motion picture!”

Slim Grisson (Jack La Rue) is a gangster with a taste for rough work, and in this 1948 British crime film he leads a trio of cheap hoods into a job far bigger than they planned. They snatch Miss Blandish (Linden Travers), a sheltered heiress, on her wedding night, and writer-director St. John Legh Clowes adapts the James Hadley Chase novel. Dave Fenner (Hugh McDermott) goes looking for her, and the two of them barely speak.
