Synopsis by Hal Erickson
This 53-minute British "quota quickie" was released in the U.S. by MGM. Frederick Bradshaw plays an eccentric inventor wrongly accused of a crime. He escapes, scurrying away to the inn of the title. Here he locates the thieves responsible for the crime for which he was blamed. The leading lady of Alibi Inn was Molly Lamont, whose subsequent American career consisted of "other woman" roles in films like Leo McCarey's The Awful Truth (1937).
