6/10
Comic version of "The 39 Steps"
30 April 2022
With the same leading actress, no less. And it is made with enough technical proficiency to pass muster as a "real" espionage thriller, invaded by Bob Hope's jokes (my favorite: a debate session with himself). Madeleine Carroll proves equally adept at the comedic and the serious moments; George Zucco and Gale Sondergaard always add good value as villains, but they are underutilized this time. **1/2 out of 4.
