Movie Description Armed robbery, international espionage, and cold-blooded murder are just a few of the themes that run through this collection of rare crime films. Government secrets fall into the wrong hands in COUNTERSPY MEETS SCOTLAND YARD, RADAR SECRET SERVICE, and SKY LINER (set in LaGuardia Airport circa 1949). Then, champions of justice root out crime and corruption in MR. DISTRICT ATTORNEY, ROARING CITY, WESTERN PACIFIC AGENT, and MOTOR PATROL (the last two directed by the ridiculously prolific Sam Newfield). Finally, San Francisco provides the backdrop for a search for missing jewels in TREASURE OF MONTE CRISTO while HIGHWAY 13 continues the great tradition of trucker noirs.
