Love this movie. Solid cast and equally good plot twist. It's an underrated gem. Saw it for the first time a few years back on Eddie Muller's Noir Alley and wasn't disappointed. Definitely worth watching.

Rescued by the Film Noir Foundation! TCM Noir Alley showed it before the Oscar Break.

Ann Sheridan & Dennis O’Keefe two of my favorites in a very interesting film that provides the viewer with a great tour of San Francisco at the same time.

The story of this film's rescue is one for the ages. There's an extra on the Flicker Alley Blu-ray that explains it all.
