Plot Summary:Beautiful Mary returns to her small hometown after many years from Chicago wearing a mink coat and carrying an expensive cigarette case. Her arrival causes long standing enmities to surface between two of her old boyfriends, Kenny Veech, a loafing gambler, and debonair Lew Lentz, owner of a local nightclub. Their deep-seated animosity repeatedly results in antagonism and fights as they compete for Mary's affections. Kenny's friend Gitlo, a bartender in Lentz' club, enlists Kenny in an aborted plan to rob Lentz of $15,000 in profits from sponsoring a local carnival. Lentz retaliates by framing both men for murder.
男女主都不在状态，摄影和剪辑也很粗糙。

2.5星，只有一个桥段值得一看，却是维克多.麦克拉格伦演绎的，乔治.拉夫特和艾娃.加德纳就像两块木头。艾娃可以理解毕竟那会还年轻演不来戏至少还有美貌，至于拉夫特已经不想说他了。PS很多黑色电影都改编自小说，虽然我们念叨更多的是哈米特，钱德勒，凯恩，其实女作家们也贡献了不少小说素材。
