Reviews
Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.
Organnall Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,
Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
GUENOT PHILIPPE I am very happy to have, at last, caught this rare noir from the USA. I must admit that I never miss a Nick Grinde's movie, as I do with the likes of Robert Florey, Phil Rosen and other William Nigh. Grade B products from the thirties and forties. Fast, short and vivid stories that never make you bored. This one is not an exception. Long Horn, as usual, gave us the topic and this thrilling chase all over the country to escape from the police justifies not to miss this little gem.Of course, there is no much surprise in it, but it gives us what we may expect.There are more Nick Grinde's films to purchase. Much searching work for me.
