A late-cycle film noir with a script by Rod Serling, from a novel by Whit (Touch of Evil) Masterson? Starring Pat Boone as an egomaniacal pop crooner whose only child is kidnapped for a king's ransom? With Barbara Eden as his wife? And Jack Klugman as the investigating cop? Be here at the Ambler as the Film Noir Foundation resurrects this pop-culture obscurity in a brand-new digital restoration.This rediscovered noir also features a wall-to-wall jazz-pop score by Kenyon Hopkins and a supporting cast that's a Who's Who of sixties favorites: Steve Forrest, Jesse White, Harold Gould, Milton Seltzer, Jeff Corey, Joe Turkel.  It's one of the first features on the résumé of veteran TV director Buzz Kulik (Playhouse 90, Twilight Zone, Warning Shot, Brian's Song).CREDITSDirector: Buzz KulikCast: Pat Boone, Barbara Eden, Jack KlugmanScreenplay: Rod SerlingCinematographer: Floyd CrosbyMusic: Kenyon HopkinsProduction: Cooga Monga ProductionsOriginal Distributor:  20th C FoxPresentation: DCP / b&w / 2.35:1
