RENFREW OF THE ROYAL MOUNTED POLICE. Danger Ahead. 1940 RCMP Film.



Renfrew films are about as realistic a look at the RCMP as Starsky and Hutch was to police work… but they’re a lot of fun. In this one Renfrew (James Newell) goes after the culprits of an armored car heist but learns not all things are what they seem. This film fell into the public domain in 1968 from lack of copyright renewal.
