This certainly doesn't hang about - it is a fast paced and quite enjoyable crime noir. Faye Emerson plays "Dot" who is the stooge at a bank robbery. Her only problem is that the robbers get away with $40,000 and she gets caught and sent to jail; not before, that is, she reclaims the missing loot and deposits it with her landlady for safe-keeping. One of her fellow inmates can lip read, realises what's she's done and her life takes a turn for the more dangerous... It's got pretty soggy dialogue and the prison is more like a YWCA with fewer bars. There's a fun car chase at the end, though....
You've reached the end.
