The Mark Of The Whistler

Based on the CBS radio story, this film features Dix as a drifter ready to lay claim to an old bank account only to find himself the target of two men out for revenge. It seems that Dix had a run-in with the men's father over the money, and as a result, the father ended up in jail. Dix gets out of this mess and befriends a crippled peddler who, as it turns out, is the real owner of the nest egg. Direction is evenly paced and performances are up to par.
