About The Spy Ring
Two American-army officers are working on a new type of machine-gun for anti-aircraft warfare, when one of them is murdered. The other vows to get the spies that are after the invention and avenge his friend's death.
Directed by Joseph H. Lewis, The Spy Ring leans on a strong ensemble — William Hall, Jane Wyman, Esther Ralston — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about adventure titles of 1938.
