Passport to Destiny (1944) is a RKO Radio Pictures comedy adventure fantasy war film. It stars Elsa Lanchester in her only leading role as an English cleaning woman who, believing herself invulnerable by being protected by a magic eye amulet, single handedly travels to Nazi Germany to personally assassinate Adolf Hitler. Set during the London Blitz, Ella Muggins (Lanchester) is a Camberwell cleaning woman who is the widow of a Regimental Sergeant Major (a photo of Charles Laughton, Lanchester's real-life husband). One day she relates to her friends a story about a "magic eye" charm that her husband obtained during his Army service in India that protected him from all harm. Whilst cleaning her attic, she goes through her husband's effects and finds the charm that she absent mindedly puts in the pocket of her skirt. During an air raid she is caught in the middle of the street with a delay-action bomb. She gets conflicting instructions from two air raid wardens, one telling her to run, another telling her to lay down. She does the latter and survives the explosion though she is helped to the shelter in a daze. As she recovers she realises that her husband's charm has protected her. LESS
