Monday, March 29 - Fate Takes a Hand

Fate Takes a Hand (1961)

Fifteen years after a mail robbery, the loot is recovered, along with several letters. It's up to Ronald Howard to track down the recipients, because the mail must go through. Newspaper reporter Christina Gregg goes along, hoping for a human interest story or two.

These tales include a love-lorn blind woman, paling to the rudimentary comic relief of a working man standing up to his boss after winning money... while the most earthy has a prisoner recollecting a little girl's kidnapping...

One about a husband being framed by a crooked wife... only to occur before and after the letter-carrying-duo arrive...

And a punchy ex-brawler who "could have been a contender" before throwing a fight...
