Story Outline: In this thin plot with lots of holes for the audience to fall through, the film begins with Viggo's [Johnny Faro's] death in a plane crash in Mexico. His wife discovers that his business deals are very much in the red. When she flies to Mexico to identify her husband she discovers baseball cards, with circled numbers on them in his belongings. |
These turn out to be secret bank account numbers which she travels the globe and withdraws six figure sums of money. She soon attracts attention and is pursued by heavies, is helped by Dr Fergus Lamb. No sooner than the question arises "Is Johnny really dead" Johnny reappears, after having faked his death. This film possibly had possibilities, but didn't make it. What a shame. |
