Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: B --
Produced by Howard Hughes and well-directed by Lewis Milestone, this yarn, about a police officer trying to control the mob, was one of the few crime-gangster films to be nominated for the Best Picture Oscar until the 1970s.

It's easy to understand how it gripped audiences during the more primitive days of filmmaking.

A good story, plus good direction, plus a great cast and minus dumb supervision, is responsible for another great underworld film.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Robert Armstrong and Carole Lombard star in this vivid drama of double crossing men and double dealing women. Tough mobster Mahlon Keane (Armstrong) finds himself smitten with financially strapped ex-society girl Rhoda Philbrooke (Lombard). When Keane learns that Rhoda needs money to help an alcoholic violinist (Roland Drew), he decides to help the cause. Soon, Rhoda finds herself caught between two men -- the mobster and the musician! It's a romance of high society and the underworld, crackling with smashing dialog and plenty of action!
