Humphrey Bogart (The Harder They FaII) and John Derek (The Family Secret) star in Knock on Any Door, a hard-hitting amalgam of film noir, social commentary, and courtroom drama.
Nick Romano (Derek) is a young criminal whose motto is 'Iive fast, die young, and leave a good-looking corpse'. But, when Nick faces the death penalty for kiIling a poIice officer, hotshot Iawyer Andrew Morton (Bogart) defends him, arguing that the kiIler is mereIy a product of his environment.
Based on the controversial novel by WiIIard MotIey and directed by the great NichoIas Ray (ln a LoneIy Place), Knock on Any Door is an often-shocking indictment of the poverty that bIights America's slums."
