Movie Info
John Wayne teaches those dirty Commies yet another lesson in Blood Alley. Wayne plays a veteran seaman who comes to the aid of Lauren Bacall, the daughter of a missionary doctor killed by the Red Chinese. It takes no little persuasion, but Bacall finally convinces Wayne to smuggle a group of villagers past the Communist forces and into the safe harbor of Hong Kong. Though there are many close calls, Wayne proves to be a shade smarter and more resourceful than the minions of Mao. Lauren Bacall

Lesser seen Duke Wayne, here teamed with Lauren Bacall in international actioner.
The 2004 Special Wayne collection includes as egment on Wayne's Crusade for Freedom; the Air Force Honors the film's cast; 1955 promos on Blood Alley; and Wayne discussing how he made it into the movies.
Camouflaged as action-adventure, this is one of John Wayne's most propagadistic movies, in which he rescues an entire village from the ill of Communism.
Mitchum was lucky to get out of this stinker!
