Plot Summary:Flicker Hayes informs the police after he sets up two men to be caught in a phony robbery attempt, because they were responsible for his going to prison. Dan Curly escapes, but the other kills a policeman and goes to the chair, so Dan wants two hitmen to get Flicker, who plans to leave the country. But he meets down-and-out Rose Lawrence, an ex-prostitute looking to hitch a ride to a small fishing village in the south to marry a Portuguese fisherman, and Flicker decides it would be a nice place to hide. After he seduces Rose, Flicker stakes her to a bus ticket and goes with her. But he's been spotted by Pop Sims, who follows them and reports Flicker's whereabouts to Dan. Meanwhile, Rose falls in love with Flicker, who is unaware that the hitmen are coming to kill him.
犯罪剧下的言情，忠于的传统的价值观不在于出身，而是婚姻的选择

4.5 CHERCHEZ LA FEMME. 流泪。抱着阴差阳错的爱情轻喜剧的期待，却听到了这句cherchez la femme, 看了一个虐得肝疼的Noir. 两角色的悲剧命运各自恰到好处，一切的不完美都work perfectly, 詹味十足。剧本蛮好的呀(或许除了这个口眼歪斜的名字吧)，Cagney为什么要蓄小胡子以示抵抗哈？如果不是这两根诡异的胡，我想跟Joanie告别那场戏能更动人的。
