Ty Hardin, star of the popular 1950s TV western Broncho, followed the lead of several of his contemporaries by appearing in low-budget European actioners in the 1960s. The Italian/Spanish Ragan casts Hardin as a mercenary pilot. At present operating out of South America, Hardin is hired to rescue the exiled president of a banana republic. Along for the ride are Antonella Lualdi and Jack "Giacomo" Stuart. Like many of these "runaway" productions, Ragan quickly made back its cost in Europe, then went directly into the American TV-syndication pool. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Wealthy Walter Frazer (Torin Thatcher) has always held his daughter-in-law Sue Ellen (Diana Millay), a former nightclub singer, responsible for the failures of his son Gregson (Bryan Grant), now working as a parking attendant. Hoping to get rid of Sue Ellen, Frazer offers her a huge sum to divorce Gregson, but she angrily turns him down. Not long afterward, Gregson is murdered--whereupon Frazer does an about-face, insisting that Sue Ellen is a wonderful girl and his son was a no-good wastrel. In his efforts to defend Sue Ellen on a murder charge, Perry Mason (Raymond Burr) tries to uncover the real reason behind Frazer's highly unconvincing change of heart. Watch for future TV icons Alan Hale Jr. (Gilligan's Island) and DeForest Kelley (Star Trek) in supporting roles. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
