Bill B I couldn't bring myself to finish watching it after getting about halfway through. It was trite and predictable, with cardboard characters. A waste of good talent. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/07/25 Full Review acsdoug D Can't quite put my finger on why I didn't like this one that much. The story isn't too bad, the dialogue isn't cheesy. the acting is okay. But still, my mind was wandering throughout. I guess the whole is less than the sum of its parts. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 08/09/25 Full Review Bill T A step up from the stiff "Convict's Code" movie from 1931 that this movie is remade from, Broderick Crawford fills Water Hustons shoes very nicely as the DA turned Prison Warden with a heart of golden. I was worried that he was going to be TOO soft, but Crawford knows when to be soft and when to lay down the law. Gleen Ford is pretty much Glenn Ford in anything he does. He's supposedly 27 here, but he could pass for 40 here. But he's Glenn Ford, so I guess that's ok lol Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Almost film noir, happy ending. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Glenn Ford is wrongfully arrested for the accidental death of a rich man's son (who was being a jerk at a dance hall for Ford's girl and Ford rightfully punched him, but he hit his head and later died of his head injury). Ford has a crumby lawyer and ends up with a long prison sentence. While in prison, Ford goes through the usual prinson film cliches when kindly new warden Broderick Crawford (who was the prosecuting attorney that send him to prison) comes to the big house, he tries to help Ford. Dorothy Malone plays Ford's girl and Millard Mitchell plays a tough con who Ford shares a cell with, along with Will Geer and Ed Begley. It's all pretty formal, but I've always liked Glenn Ford and it's a entertaining enough of production, even if it's nothing as original as "Brute Force" which came out just three years earlier.
