Interesting premise, but jumbled story
27 September 2020
An interesting enough premise, which has an old guy in a newsroom pointing out rather philosophically that today was once the unknown future, and positing that "time is only an illusion." He backs up his words by providing a newsman (Dick Powell) with tomorrow's edition, and away we go. Unfortunately, the film doesn't do enough with the actual time stuff, getting muddled up in silly dialogue and action sequences like a chase and shootout. Linda Darnell is alluring and there are a couple of nice romantic moments, but for the most part she isn't given enough to do either. It's all a bit of jumble, hard to hate really because it's so lighthearted, but at same time, hard to like.
