Transcript:

PAVILION, SELSEY. As a glamorous double-crossing menace, "PAULA,” Janis Carter is featured in a role calculated to give it to patrons on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Mike (Glenn Ford), a tough mining engineer, meets and falls in love with Paula, while she, a waitress in a cheap cafe, merely uses him to further a scheme she is planning with Stephen (Barry Sullivan), a bank official. Their intention is to crash a car and leave Mike, who resembles Stephen, dead inside, and escape with £60,000, which Stephen has stolen from the bank. But at the climatic moment Paula has a change of heart. For the remainder of the week Walter Pidgeon, Ilona Massey, Roddy McDowall and Jane Powell spend a "HOLIDAY IN MEXICO".
