At least I think thats what it was about since it isn't very good and more annoying than interesting. Actually it doesn't make a great deal of sense and I found myself not caring almost immediately. I shut the film off after 20 minutes much of which involved scanning the DVD to get to the next interesting bit.
3 out of 10. Only for those desperate at 3am for something to watch thats not an infomercial
"Ellis Island" is a ho-hum crime drama. A criminal is sent to jail for a bank robbery. When he is released 10 years later at Ellis Island, he is met by some rival gangsters who hope he will take them to the money that has never been recovered.
Winsome Peggy Shannon plays Betty, the jailed gangster's niece, who along with Donald Cook and Kipp (who is on his way to his own wedding)try to solve the mystery of the missing money. Johnny Arthur, who usually played timid, henpecked types was Kip, Cooks offsider.
Betty Compson plays Adele, his bride to be.
Jack La Rue played one of the gangsters.
When Betty is kidnapped by rival gangsters because she happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, the film's action speeds up. The film is over so fast - with not even a kiss and fade out from the two stars - Donald Cook and Peggy Shannon.
