Michael E. Grost Classic Film and Television 11/30/2015
Crime melodrama benefits from the usual hard-hitting Warners approach, good cast, and a shrewd look at class and the collaboration of the educated and uneducated. Go to Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews 01/09/2010

Luca D @JoeCamel7 Dec 27 Definitely overrated, a decent noir but nothing special about it. Even the acting was weak every account except Bogart's. Not much romance or suspense or anything to keep the movie moving forward. Probably won't watch again See more Steve D 01/08/2024 Solid work by all involved. See more Aldo G 06/04/2023 Bette Davis is among a group of prostitutes (called "nightclub hostesses") ensnared in the grip of a mob kingpin/pimp. Provocative Warner Bros production with Humphrey Bogart playing a prosecutor. Some nice moments, including a great scene to end the film, but some of the performances missed the mark. See more David K 04/12/2023 Bette Davis AND Humphrey Bogart? Honestly, I love Bogie and dislike Davis, but... In this film, my normal take is not valid. Bogie is an afterthought, but not Davis. She rarely reaches into her bag of ham and the result is outstanding. The story, directed by Lloyd Bacon, is well-paced. One of Davis' better efforts. Of particular note, this was one of (if not the) first film Davis made after her "strike" against Warner Bros. for the roles she was getting. Good move. See more william d @acsdoug 08/26/2021 Maybe my rating is too harsh. After all, the film has Bette Davis and Humphrey Bogart in it. However, the story is weak and the dialogue is incredibly lame. Even Lloyd Bacon's usually reliable direction seems off. See more deke p 06/12/2020 1937 BETTE DAVIS was young, charming, cute and adorable. One might be 73 years old and almost never have had a chance to see her like this. And so were the other girls in this movie, And an excellent movie. AND BOGART as good District Atty.
