Review of Safe in Hell (1931) by Mordaunt Hall for The New York Times — 20 May 1937
Safe in Hell is a little reminiscent of "The Unholy Garden," with its tropic sanctuary where rogues of various nationalities live out their days in happy oblivion, safe from the long arm of extradition.
The theme is a good deal sadder, a sort of meldodramatization of all those sad songs about the women who will die rapturously for their men.
