Second Chance (1953)

RKO Radio Pictures
Directed by Rudolph Mate
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Turner Classic Movies)

Linda Darnell is stalked by Jack Palance in Mexico. She's scheduled to testify before Congress about his mob connections. He wants to stop her, but he is also madly in love with her. Luckily boxer Robert Mitchum is in town and has his eye on her as well, and steps in to protect her. It all ends with Palance and Mitchum duking it out on a high-wire cable car dangling above a gorge. The final scenes are somewhat enhanced by the 3D, but otherwise a rather routine drama filmed on Mexican locations.
