In the 1950s, many British film companies recruited American actors to star in their movies. Why? Well, the thought was that these British movies would be much easier to market to the States with a few familiar faces. Generally, these actors were second-tier...good actors but not the super-high priced ones.
"Lady in the Fog" is one of these British films with an American in the lead. Caersar Romero plays Philip O'Dell, a guy who is trying to leave the UK but whose flight is delayed due to fog. During this waiting period, he meets a woman and they talk. Soon she is alerted that her brother is dead...run over in the fog. Considering the brother's unsavory associates, she assumes his death was no accident. But there isn't much to go on or prove her theory, so the police don't take the case. Instead, O'Dell investigates the case himself....and opens up a huge can of worms, so to speak.
The film is very average....a decent story, decent acting. Nothing bad nor outstanding here...the definition of a nice time-passer.
