But Jerry sets the model down in a pool of water and douses Betty. Lambert authorizes Jerry and Doc to test their remote-controlled robot pilot on one of his planes for the Army. Jerry flies the plane up, bails out and Doc is to land the plane using his remote control box. But foreign agents, wishing to hamper the development of the robot pilot, have tampered with the controls, and Doc is unable to pull the plane out of a spin, and it crashes.

Pretty craptastic....or is craptacular the proper word for this film?!

While you cannot blame the original film makers, the DVD copy of"Emergency Landing" was VERY rough--with a lot of choppy scenes and ascratchy print. I sure that looks like it comes from a '20 Movie Pack'for $5 by Mill Creek--which it did.A very young and inexperienced Forrest Tucker stars in this film. Whilehe later became a good supporting character playing various tough orgruff roles, here he just looks young and lost. I think casting him asthe handsome hero was a bit of a mistake and Tucker's personality inthe film does nothing to sell the material.The film is about a radio control device for airplanes. I loved thecrappy special effects when they tried it out on a model plane, as theplane made completely impossible turns and it made it obvious that itwas on a wire. Well, apparently the US Army Air Corps is not the onlygroup who want this ridiculous machine and 'the enemy' have sent outspies to steal it. Since the film came out just before the US enteredWWII and this studio was afraid to make waves, they just used genericbaddies and made them neither German nor Japanese.There is a guy named 'Pedro' in the film who superficially looks a lotlike Leo Carillo's 'Pancho' from "The Cisco Kid"--but Pedro is playedin a much broader and cheesier manner. He's like a walking badstereotype of a 1940s Mexican. I am sure many will cringe when theywatch his antics. And, they might cringe when a lady automaticallycalls Pedro by name. He is surprised she knows his name and sheresponds "...every Mexican is named Pedro...or Pancho". Wow...howenlightened! But unfortunately, the non-Mexican characters aren't a lotbetter. Women whine, act petulant and cry, guys stare as if they can'tstand the studio lights and the actors look mostly like they're in ahigh school play.The bottom line is that the film is bad--really bad. The script,editing, direction by William Beaudine and acting are all uniformlybad. And, unfortunately, while the film is about spies, it's amazinglystiff and dull.

Emmett Vogan has more frames in this one than in all his 800-other films combined.

Because of a back-log of war orders, the Lambert Airplane factory isunable to try-out the robot-controlled plane developed by test pilotJerry Barton (Forrest Tucker) and weather bureau observer, "Doc"Williams (Emmett Vogan). The pair lie in wait for factory owner GeorgeB. Lambert (William Halligan)while he is playing golf with his spoileddÃ©butant daughter, Betty (Carol Hughes), and send up theirradio-controlled model where Lambert cannot fail to notice it. ButJerry sets the model down in a pool of water and douses Betty, in aP.R.C. version of a "cute meeting." Hey, M-G-M has some cute meetingsworse than this one, none which provided a lobby card showingskin-up-past the skivvies. In the scene, Carol Hughes is playing golfwearing a short white skirt---real, real short---and Forrest Tucker haspicked her up...and the skirt has risen and there is a shot showingmost of the bottom half of Miss Hughes' fancy panties and very shapelyrear end. The still photographer caught it, and it was used as in inseton the one-sheet poster, the press book cover and on the Title Card ofthe 12x14 lobby card set, and also as a full scene on the 8th card ofthe set. The Breen Office also caught it, and P.R.C. had to hire anartist to come in and draw a white skirt extending well past MissHughes knees, and that is what is currently shown on the one-sheet, thepress book cover and the 12x14 title card. But the Breen censor musthave missed seeing lobby card number eight in the set, and Miss Hughesis still shown on it in all of her well-dimpled glory. And a mightynice card it is. No, of course it's not for sale.Anyway, old dad Lambert authorizes Jerry and Doc to test theirremote-controlled robot pilot on one of his planes for the Army. Jerryflies the plane up, bails out and Doc is to land the plane using hisremote control box. But foreign agents, wishing to hamper thedevelopment of the robot pilot, have tampered with the controls, andDoc is unable to pull the plane out of a spin, and it crashes. Lambertfires Jerry and he and Doc return to the remote weather outpost to domore work on their invention.Cute Meeting number Two occurs when Betty, on her way to Hollywood tobe a movie star, is driving across the desert with her Aunt Maude(Evelyn Brent) and runs out of gas,and Betty borrows some gas belongingto the U.S. government, and is caught by Jerry. He decides to place herunder arrest, pending the arrival, in a week's time, of the U.S.Marshal. But, alas, nothing happens in this scene to incur the wrath ofthe Breen office, unless they made Martin Mooney write in Aunt Maude toensure Betty and Jerry would have a full-time chaperon for the week,although Evelyn Brent is not the run-of-the-mill chaperon type. PatsyKelly or Mary Treen must have been unavailable...thank goodness.Anyway, Jerry makes Betty and Aunt Maude do housework and chores, andseeing any character played by Evelyn Brent doing housework is, if notcute, unique. And the spies steal a plane, crash in the desert, show upand make some trouble, and try to get away in a car in which Betty andAunt Maude are hiding in the trunk and some more stuff.
