  • "Film noir police thriller juggles around five characters through a particularly bad night in a Chicago police precinct: Johnny Kelly, a stressed out cop ready to crack; Sally 'Angel Face' Connors, a lounge singer looking for a way out; Hayes Stewart, a thug-for-hire who's dying to move up in the syndicate; Penrod Biddle, a smooth and corrupt district attorney; and Sgt. Joe, an honest cop trying to keep Joe on a straight path."@en

  • "A corrupt lawyer plans to use a disillusioned cop to 'dispose' of an associate who is double crossing him. This film noir effectively uses Chicago locations as backdrops for a gallery of 'noir' characters, most interestingly a "mechanical man" working in a nightclub who provides some memorable moments of pathos amidst corruption and cynicism also alleviated by the 'voice of the city' in the person of a police sergeant."@en
