I've always loved this movie a lot. I'm a Bogie fan and a Billy Halop fan, too, so this movie really interests me.
Halop should have gone on to stardom, as he had the looks and charisma to make it. I don't know what went wrong, but this film is a good indication of his growing acting ability.
It's also a step in the right direction towards breaking Halop away from his silly juvenile roles. He could easily play more sinister, dark roles, and this movie proves it.
The ending could have glossed over the Halop-Bogie clash, but didn't, and I like that.
It's a well-made little gangster film that deserves much better accolades.
