Thunder in the east

I remember seeing this film in about 1959/60. I clearly remember it being part of a double bill at my local ABC cinema. If, as I believe, it was made in 1949,it must have been knocking about for at least 10 years before ending up as a double bill feature. I recall seeing it some years later on television but I don't imagine that it has been shown for many years. It is quite interesting to see that copies of the film are available on ebay. However, I don't think that the film justifies the prices that are being asked, it is after all a fairly tired, and not very well thought of old potboiler and is more a curiousity piece than anything else.
