Bulldog Drummond Escapes is a 1937 American mystery thriller film directed by James P. Hogan and starring Ray Milland as Captain Hugh "Bulldog" Drummond alongside Heather Angel and Reginald Denny.[1] Paramount continued with the Bulldog Drummond series, producing seven more films over the next two years.

## Plot[edit]

Captain Hugh 'Bulldog' Drummond (Ray Milland) has just returned to England and as he is driving home in the dark, a young woman jumps out in front of his car. He misses her, but she falls to the ground. As he tries to revive her, he hears a shout for help, then gunshots and when he goes to investigate, the woman drives away in his car. He is soon able to trace her to nearby Greystone Manor and when he goes there to meet her she introduces herself as Phyllis Clavering (Heather Angel) and urges him to help her get out of a desperate situation.
