Boston Blackie And The Law - 1946 - 5/10

During Blackie’s annual Thanksgiving magic show inside the woman’s prison, an escape occurs!
Of course, ex-con Blackie is suspected and taken downtown by the police.
He must free himself, find the missing felon, and figure out the reason why she jumped months before her parole.
As always, Chester Morris charms his way along, and even sidekick Runt has a beefy role.
Police, however, are reincarnated Keystone Kops. Not 10 IQ points between the lot.
They exist for comedy only, and moronic comedy at that.
Not one of the better examples of this series.
