The Saint in London

Suave soldier of fortune Simon Templer gets mixed up with a gang of counterfeiters who've murdered and robbed an European count of 1,000,000 pounds. He is aided reluctantly by Scotland Yard inspector Teal, who's convinced that Templar himself pulled off the heist, and less reluctantly by light-fingered Dugan and dizzy socialite Penny Parker.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

I have seen this movie several times and yet I still don't get the tie in at the end with the Saint and Mr Lang. The Saint "kills" Lang earlier in the movie, yet in the end Lang shows up in Inspector Teal's office with no explanation as to why. That makes this movie much ado about nothing. George Sanders, as usual, plays a great part, but it doesn't tie up nicely at the end. The writer shouldn't take pride in his work on The Saint in London. Poor, poor job of it all at the end. I do love the character of Dugan. He had a standout role in the movie.

Although it stars George Sanders rather than Louis Hayward in the title role (as in the previous "The Saint In New York"), this light-hearted romp through the imaginary underworld of 1930s London is equally silly. Unfortunately, the wisecracks and cameos are no substitute for the poor script, bland plot and unbelievable characters. It appears too to have been made on a shoestring budget.Three things should stand out for the 21st Century viewer: the obvious back projection in the car scenes, the paucity of telephones, and the ubiquity of cigarette smoke. David Burns plays Simon Templar's unlikely sidekick, and the love interest is provided by Sally Gray as flibbertigibbet Penny Parker.

Society girl Penny Parker (Sally Gray) describes what she has heard about the Saint: "He's supposed to be tall and handsome, and he's supposed to have a cross-shaped scar...." She pauses as Simon Templar, with whom she has been dancing, reaches over to light her cigarette, baring his right wrist. She takes a glance and coolly resumes: "A cross-shaped scar on his right wrist." George Sanders is back as Simon Templar in this easygoing mystery. Sally Gray and David Burns are his two loyal sidekicks: the three leads together make up a fun trio—as different as can be, and yet enjoying each other's company immensely. Gray is the girl who begins tagging along after Templar pretty much as soon as she realizes his identity, offering assistance, getting in the way, and saving his life once or twice. Burns is fun as Dugan, the American ex-convict (from Leavenworth, not Sing Sing!) who hires on as Templar's valet and performs various duties. Part comic relief, part right hand man, Dugan has a clear philosophy: "Me? I figure to do just like I'm told, and then maybe muscle in on the fireworks later on."The mystery plot itself is nothing spectacular; it follows a high class gang's scheme to print off a large stack of foreign money, and the Saint's efforts to ferret out and capture their leader, Bruno Lang (played with suave nastiness by Henry Oscar). My favorite line: Penny Parker explaining to Dugan that the Saint isn't really a criminal…. "He's more like a sort of Robin Hood." "Yeah?" Dugan snaps suspiciously. "Who's this guy Hood?"Overall, it's simple but lots of fun, with Sanders excellent as always as the irresistible Simon Templar.

Saint in London, The (1939) ** 1/2 (out of 4) Third film in RKO's series has George Sanders returning as The Saint. This time out The Saint travels to London where he gets involved with a counterfeiting ring and gets some help from a beautiful socialite (Sally Gray). This third film is a slight improvement over the second but I still wouldn't call the film very good or entertaining. Sanders seems more comfortable in his role but I still think he's rather miscast. I'm really not sure what issues I'm having with him because I thought he was much better in the similar The Falcon series, which would start up a few years after this movie. The film has a little bit more action, which keeps the film moving better and it also has some rather nice humor. It's strange that a mystery film would leave the viewer with no mystery to figure out because we meet the bad guys early in the movie so there's no guessing for us to do. Instead, a lot of the film has childish flirting between Sanders and Gray. Gray comes across very good in the film and actually manages to steal it from the classic Sanders. The bad guys are all rather stiff, which also doesn't help things. In the end, the 72-minute running time was just a tad bit too much for me as the film eventually ran out of gas. The IMDb lists an alternate running time of 79-minutes and there does appear to be some editing during the film and that includes a scene where Gray is held hostage by the bad guys.
