Danny is despised by his schoolmates because his father was accused of killing another man and sentenced to death.
Superior Noir melodrama is beautifully made and photographed and takes its dark, seemingly hopeless tale to a tense finale.
Halliwell*: "Broody melodrama set against a remote village and swamp background; not a very interesting story, but memorable detail."
Maltin**1/2: "Uneven script...But it's beautifully directed; check out stunning opening shot, and opening sequence."
