Audience Reviews for Jigsaw
½
Middling crime quickie not terrible but nothing special. Franchot Tone usually a fine actor seems to be going through the motions here perhaps off screen problems account for that since he and Jean Wallace who plays Barbara were ending their marriage at this time. The script is weak and the cameos by big stars are fun to watch for but add nothing to the story, famous people just pop across the screen and are gone. Hester Sondergaard is Gale's sister and the resemblence is striking.
