A wonderful movie of lost identity. Bogart was the gangster "Earl". Again Proving the innate ability of Bogart to capture the 'essence' of the 'character' he was acting ... He was The Gangster "Earl" ... Lupino another brilliant actress and later to become a director. They'll never be another BOGART nor LUPINO ... Black and White NOIR at it's finest ... director Raul Walsh brought the pieces-together.
