A Tribute to Jeffrey Hunter

(Matt Jameson)  In this noir-ish film, released not long before Jeff’s very different King of Kings, Jeff plays a suburban husband who falls victim to a war buddy's (David Janssen) scheme to recover $3.5 million stolen from a Latin American dictator, and split the large reward. Unfortunately for Jeff’s character, the scheme is only the first of two “man traps” in the film. Stella Stevens plays the second one – Jeff’s wife! Also starring Hugh Sanders and Elaine Devry, and directed by Edmond O’Brien, who is better known for his Oscar-winning acting work.
