    Visitors Will Leave the Train Before Departing

    This last gasp effort to resurrect Jon Hall's career has him as an American diplomat in India caught up in the usual web of intrigue and overwrought screen music. The script itself is a bit of a hodge podge of spy movies, ranging from KIM to SABOTEUR, filled with hearty Irish spies, Indians who wear turbans and so forth: very primitive visual clues, because this movie was not going to play the big houses in major cities.

    Director Fred Sears can't really do that much with the entire proceedings. DP Henry Freulich takes a shot at doing something by shooting the exterior scenes to obtain a documentary movie look, but the result is frequently blurry, rather than immediate. All in all, a waste of everyone's time.

    Unfortunately not the last film produced by Sam Katzman

    But I expected far worse than this result, from director Fred S Sears - who always did hid best - and producer Sam Katzman, the sorcerer of Columbia Pictures in the B department. Jon Hall also does his best to save the whole thing. I repeat, I expected far worse than this. And I was lucky enough to watch a good copy of this feature where Sam Katzman's trademark is not as obvious as other movies produced by him. Speaking of India, this is definitely not BHOWANI JUNCTION nor NORTHWEST FRONTIER, you have been warned; neither NINE HOURS TO RAMA. So, if you are Fred Sears' buff and have really nothing else to do, try this one, adventure action flicks taking place in India are not so numerous.

    O.K. Film for Some

    This is a film that has resurfaced after 40 years of being stored somewhere. Unless one is a devoted film buff one will likely recognize no-one in the film. Even Jon Hall who made a big splash in 1937 in "Hurricane" is not easily recognized in this 1952 film.

    It is a story of an American diplomat who uncovers a plot to kill an important Indian prince (when Indian princes mattered!) by blowing up his train. There are a couple of killings for which the diplomat is blamed, thus preventing him from approaching the police for help. There are a few twists and turns but the film is rather standard.

    There are a number of incongruities in the film which will be noticed by many viewers - the film was quite obviously done inexpensively and it shows in the script and much of the scenery. It fits with Ronald Reagan's comment: "They didn't want it good. They wanted it Tuesday." Don't make a point of trying to see it, but if it's on and you want to pass 75 minutes it is probably entertaining enough.

    Not one of Hall's better films.

    Stock footage and brown-face actors

    Someone had the bright idea of making a story set in India BUT they didn't have much of a budget. So, they used a few stock pieces of footage shot in India AND painted up a bunch of American actors to look 'Indian'...and sound like Americans! I care less that it's politically incorrect and more that it's just sloppy and stupid. And, speaking of sloppy and stupid, the film stars the down and out actor Jon Hall...who used to be something back in the early 1940s but who was pretty washed up by the 1950s. Additionally, his once good looks were pretty much gone by the time he made the movie.

    Martin Viking (nice last name) is an American diplomat in India. However, he's also going to become a scapegoat for some conspiracy to kill an Indian government official. He also finds out these same people are planning on blowing up a train! So, Martin decides to investigate on his own to find out who is responsible...and stop them.

    Despite all the cheap aspects of the production, is the film any good? Well, it's not terrible...not that this is a ringing endorsement. I think had the film had a decent budget and didn't take so many shortcuts, the story might have worked better.

    Rehearsal for "Ramar"

    This little adventure yarn is set in India, which was also one of the settings for star Jon Hall's subsequent TV series, "Ramar of the Jungle." The actor who plays the crooked bartender in this movie would later play Ramar's British sidekick. In a more literary vein, I wonder if this picture was inspired by the novel "Bhowani Junction," which came out the same year. Like the novel, this movie is about terrorism in post-independence India, with a train being the engine of the plot (so to speak). And the main male character in the novel had the last name "Savage," while in this movie Hall plays an American diplomat named "Viking." Coincidence? (Anyway, as movie fans know, "Bhowani Junction" went on to become an Ava Gardner/Stewart Granger movie in 1956.) "Last Train from Bombay" is no epic, but it's full of action, thanks to the inept terrorists who are continually capturing Viking. They never tie him up or even lock him up, and he makes them pay dearly every time. He punches them and runs, and they wince with frustration as he gets away to fight another round. Their failure to learn from their mistakes is no doubt what saved India.

    Histoire

    • Gaffes
      At one point the diplomat steals a Beechcraft Model 18 from an alleged Indian airport. All the aircraft on the flightline are American models wearing U.S. N-registrations and the airport is obviously in Southern California due to the mountains and eucalyptus trees visible. The Beech he commandeers is a civilianized ex-USAAF AT-11 Kansan with the former bombardier glazed nose faired over with metal. Once airborne, the Beech shown is a round-nosed C-45 model. When the actor leaves the cockpit to bail out, another sideview of the C-45 shows a pilot still in the pilot's position.
