The Last Ride (1944)
3/10
Dated war time home front film
24 December 2019
Some rather stupid kids get themselves killed in an accident while using some really bald and bad tires. That sends Detective Richard Travis on an investigation into the rubber racket and how racketeers are profiting thereby from the wartime shortage.

The racket has some solid protection in the town so Travis has to proceed with caution.

Eleanor Parker has a small role in this B film as she was moving up the Warner Brothers ladder. We all pay our dues.

One thing is certain, Americans are still obsessed with their cars now as in World War II. Didn't anybody tell these kids there's a war on.
