instead of relaxing in london, visiting detective richard carlson takes on a murdered girl case that involves blackmail, dancing, safe cracking and herbert lom - who makes puppets! stanley baker has 20 seconds as a reporter. fast moving and well worth a spin .
it featured the adventures of whispering smith, a private eye in the old west, played by audie murphy. smith was a detective for a denver, colorado - based railroad company. his partner was played by guy mitchell and the
chief
by sam buffington. their job was to protect the railroad from fraud, scandal, robberies, and murder - - pretty standard p. i. fare, actually. but the setting was relatively unique, and the show also featured some interesting guest stars: a young robert redford, harry carey jr. , noir dame marie windsor, a pre - kildare richard chamberlain, a pre - peter gunn minerva urecal and a pre - gilligan alan hale jr .
the show occasionally seemed to be based on the exploits of allan pinkerton, as it traced smith' s attempts to bring
modern
police methods to the old west. supposedly actual cases from the files of the denver police department provided the basis for many of the episodes .
the series was based on an earlier 1948 theatrical release of the same name, one of alan ladd' s first starring films and by all accounts a good ol' shoot - em - up. in it, smith is a by - the - book railroad investigator assigned to solve the mystery of a rash of train robberies, and discovers that the perpetrator is none other than his old friend murray sinclaire (played by robert preston). there' s a big showdown at the end, and an interesting romantic triangle of sorts with sinclaire' s wife .

at the time of release, the monthly film bulletin said the film was' made with modest competence,' which is spot on. low budget without being too threadbare, with a cast of b - actors who are still extremely capable, …
' bad films': one - and - a - half - star (out of five) film ratings by' the motion picture guide' (jay robert nash and stanley ralph ross, cinebooks, inc. ; 1927 - 1983 )
the series was filmed in 1959, and scheduled for the 1959 - 1960 fall season, but it seemed jinxed. with only seven episodes in the can, co - star guy mitchell fell from a horse and broke his shoulder. murphy, already less than impressed with television, was all for abandoning the project. meanwhile, sam buffington committed suicide and had to be replaced. when the show finally appeared in the summer of 1961, the senate juvenile delinquency committee filed charges that the show was too violent. the show aired its twenty episodes and was allowed to die a quiet death. nobody complained .

private eye on vacation in uk gets called in on a suspicious suicide that leads to a nasty blackmailing ring .
quite good early hammer crime film. carlson, a few years before becoming a sci - fi standard, is affable and has nice chemistry with anderson. the baddies are enjoyably hissable. nothing you' ve never seen before plotwise, but well - made and worthy of a dvd release, rather than last being shown on television circa 1987 !
