    A great lost Paramount that is hard to find!!!

    This is an early Paramount that we all enjoy watching. Paige is great as the young man sent to prison waiting to die. Joe Saywer(in an early uncredited role) as the corrupt prison guard is in great form. You really don't like this guy by what he does! John Miljan as the very sly assistant DA. He is there to believe no one but himself and strong hard facts! You'll love him in this role! Of course the lovely Ellen Drew as the young newlywed who will do anything to clear her husband, including jailbreaking and to die for him if she has to!She steals the show in this role! I reccommend this to all B-movie lovers and film buffs of the golden era. Paige and DRew in top form in an exciting picture from beginnig to end!!
