And what an unusual topic, some kind of surprising racket, but unfortunatey real. But Pre Code movies used us to find out surprises, schemes never told later in the movie history. And don't forget that Edward L Cahn directed this little cute B picture. This is short, fast, tense, a bit funny, at least light hearted without being a comedy either. Not a true crime film, just a bit drama tat deserves to be seen if you have the opportunity to watch it. You can watch it a s a fiction documentary, disguised as a film. This could have been a perfect CRIME DOESN'T PAY feature for MGM. I guess there are plenty of those lost gems somewhere in old Hollywood catalogs.
