The valiant link between the sea and the Chinese armies centered in Chungking is the Burma Road, over which valiant men blah blah blah. Well, you know how this begins, setting up another adventure of the real men who drive the trucks and the real women who love them. In particular, there's Charles Bickford, a no-nonsense man's man who's talking about heading back to Kansas City (which one he never says) to open a garage and marry that redhead, along with kid brother Frank Albertson. They've got their railroad tickets to Lashio -- or maybe they are in Lashio, wherever that is -- which leaves nice girl Evelyn Ankers, helping Cecil Kellaway run the hotel, while doing a Joan Davis imitation...... where was this sentence heading? Oh, yeah. Miss Ankers loves the big galoot. She doesn't say anything, but broadly hints with her eyes. Which Bickford doesn't notice, because he's a guy.
Then Albertson gets killed, so Bickford decides to stay and ge the dirty Jap who killed him. Because that's what men do.
In other words, it's a typical B movie, filled with Willie Fung and Turhan Bey. At just under an hour it moves too fast to confuse you.
