The Flying Saucer

1950 · 69 min

A creaky, lighthearted Cold War spy caper with a sci-fi hook, more goofy than gripping, best enjoyed as a vintage curiosity.

Tagline: Have we visitors from outer space?
Overview: The CIA sends playboy Mike Trent to Alaska with agent Vee Langley, posing as his "nurse," to investigate flying saucer sightings. At first, installed in a hunting lodge, the two play in the wilderness. But then they sight a saucer. Investigating, our heroes clash with an inept gang of Soviet spies, also after the saucer secret.
How it feels: Campy, light, tense and romantic. Measured and easy to follow.
