No Orchids for Miss Blandish

Blu-ray. A lightning rod for critics and censors upon it's debut, this British-made (but set in America) noir thriller stars Linden Travers as the title heiress, who is abducted by crooks after a botched effort to steal her wedding jewelry. The thugs' new plan to hold her for ransom might founder on her mutual attraction with the gang's psychopathic leader (Jack La Rue). Based on the same novel that inspired 1971's "The Grissom Gang"; with Hugh McDermott, Lily Molnar, Leslie Bradley. 104 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono; theatrical trailers.
