This was the movie that Fox Executives really took notice of the talent and beauty of Mary Beth Hughes and signed her to a contract shortly after "Fast and Furious" was released.
She stands out in this well done film.
Her talent and beauty were not enough to make her a big star in Hollywood although she appeared in over 50 films.
Mary Beth started doing stage and nightclub appearances quite early in her career (1943) and this took up a lot of her time. She appeared literally coast to coast for over 25 years.
This was one of the reasons experts feel kept her from major stardom in films.
Her role as beauty contestant Jerry Lawrence portrays her as a hard-boiled blonde, a role which she would repeat many times.
Summary: Fast and Furious really highlights the talented Ann Sothern and Franchot Tone and they make a great husband and wife team!
