The upper-class actor Tom Conway is best remembered by his previously work in Val Lewton productions, his unmistakeable velvety voice improves a bewitching Lawyer on this early Noir directed by the upcoming star-director Robert Wise, the plot is far-fetched to say at least, even so is quite interesting besides it was too short, Conway plays a successful and expensive Lawyer Steve Barner that is nominee by community to running for District Attorney against the corrupt opponent sponsored by a mobster Vic Wright (Robert Armstrong).
The unexpected comes when his singer girlfriend Georgia Gale (Martha O'Driscoll) is hired to work at Vic's night-club, it's ends up in a tragic event taken place there where Vic came to die by accidental circumstance in a clash between he and Steve, in such dead the fault lies on the shoulders of the silly Giorgia that got the gun on the floor witnessed by Vic's brother and running away aftermaths, then came up another show at courthouse by the skilled Steve Barner, fine small Noir directed by the newbie director Robert Wise.
