A miracle of the cinematic zeitgeist, Borzage effortlessly transforms rain soaked alleyways, a tenement flophouse and police sedans siren's wails into swamps, a shogun shack and a pack of coon hounds in this overlooked country noir masterpiece.

A very effective, chilling b-movie noir. The opening shots of a man waiting to be hung are amongst the best Frank Borzage ever filmed, steeped as they are in German Expressionism. Ethel Barrymore is, as she always is, suitably creepy. It falls apart a little in the last few minutes, and Dane Clark isn't always the most charasmatic of actors, but mostly this film succeeds, and succeeds well. Well worth seeking out, if you can.

Great Southern Gothic / noir / romance. This could almost be mistaken for an early silent film (Murnau or Hitchcock spring to mind) in terms of dynamic Expressionist technique. Dane Clark is suitably tense with anger, as the man haunted by the hanging of his criminal father, who is potentially heading for the same fate. A great, stylish, cynical yet romantic melodrama.

Parte noir, parte melodrama, o filme funciona como estudo de personagens e conto de moralidade, mas se enfraquece sempre que se entrega ao água-com-açúcar entre o conturbado protagonista e a mocinha.

The story is certainly weaker than the cinematography, but the latter is a wonderful example of film-noir through a solid director.
