《还剩6小时可活》综合了早期/中世纪的科幻小说、政治惊险片、甚至还有一点喜剧，它讲述了一位外交官（沃纳·巴克斯特饰演）即将在一次高风险的国际贸易会议上投出决定性一票的时候遇刺，随后立刻过上阴间的生活。
影片最后证明，六小时足够他追求自己和未婚妻（米里亚姆·乔丹饰演）的爱情、投出之前让他遇害的那一票以及抓获谋杀他的罪犯。
《还剩6小时可活》当然是同时代最独特的反战电影之一，片中决定命运的贸易会议完全是受到国际联盟的世界裁军会议的启发，该会议恰好发生在影片前一年——影片每五分钟就改变一次类型和调性，或者这么说吧，它悄无声息地从黑色幽暗的阴谋诡计转变为变幻莫测的情节剧，又转变为密室中的操纵政治的戏码，再转变为借由超越了二十世纪三十年代早期前后的科幻想象而实现的浪漫情节。

Admittedly, FAZIL is not at all typical of Hawks' work and lacks most of his recognizable directorial motifs, and on top of that features stars whose names only buffs will recognize, but it's a beautifully filmed, sump...
