Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Granite-jawed Jack Holt plays a dual role in Columbia's Fugitives at Large. Civil engineer George Storm (Holt) finds himself in dutch with the Law thanks to the activities of his lookalike, outlaw Tom Farrow (also Holt). Arrested by the authorities after being framed by Farrow, Storm escapes to mete out his own brand of justice. Sweet-faced Patricia Ellis essays a change-of-pace role as a wisecracking gun moll. Though Columbia's Jack Holt vehicles still did a modicum of business in 1939, Fugitive at Large ignited few fires at the box-office.
