(1949) Christabel Leighton-Porter, Stanelli, Michael Hogarth, Ian Colin, Peter Butterworth. This film is based on “Jane,” a popular comic strip in WWII Britain about the lewd misadventures of a sexy young blonde. Leighton-Porter, in the title role, plays a burlesque dancer who unknowingly transports a stolen diamond for some conniving jewel thieves. Naturally she is given numerous chances to show off her buxom figure via modest or revealing clothing! One musical number even has a whole bevy of scantily-clad beauties showing off their lovely wares. Butterworth is amusing as a stumbling drunk. Don’t take it too seriously and you’ll have fun with it. Look for Sebastian Cabot in a small role. From 16mm.
