Talking bunny rabbit

Warning: Spoilers
Okay, here goes. I'm in for the long haul (pun intended). Keep Talking Baby has never been reviewed on IMDb, and I can't and won't let that pass. I WILL review it, and I WILL meet the ten line minimum - somehow. So here goes: Eddie Constantine plays a ventriloquist falsely convicted of murder who escapes from prison. He must prove his innocence, and hopefully see the real perps get sent to jail in his place. He meets a young girl, gives her a huge stuffed bunny rabbit, and is off to the races with his plan for revenge. That's about it. Eddie is fun as usual, but the story is ridiculous and the ventriloquism angle is used sparingly - so sparingly, it's hard to understand why the filmmakers went with it. He could have been anything: butcher, baker, candlestick maker - but I guess they wanted him to throw his voice a couple of times in the movie. Not that that's really him performing the ventriloquism, either - at least I don't think it is! Nevertheless, the film is on balance an enjoyable hour and a half. Be warned that some reels of Something Weird's print are horribly washed out, but there are no better options available at present.
