Crime reporter Conrad Phillips' series of articles about gangster George Pastell annoy him so much he frames the reporter for mail robbery. While in, Phillips talk about his hopes for revenge with cell mate John Rees. When he's out, he goes to Pastell's club and proceeds to annoy him into wanting Phillips dead. When Rees comes in and offers all the information on Phillips a vengeance-seeking crime boss could want, he bites.
It's an inexpensive second feature from Butchers, which means it's very inexpensive. Nonetheless, it's competent, and I could figure out if Rees was helping Phillips, or wanted a payoff from Pastell. Now that's suspense! A very nice balance in script and production, and a particularly nice part for Rees.
