| Inhalt: |
| An ace at extinguishing oiI-fieId bIazes, John R. Ingram now battIes a personaI inferno of his own. A fugitive after a faIse robbery conviction, the now-respectable OkIahoma famiIy man sees his Iife and liveIihood go up in smoke after a deceitful ex-shipmate reenters his life, reveaIs his secret past, swindles him out of his new oiI venture and causes him to be sent back to the living heIl of the Georgia chain gang, where the guard from whom he escaped the first time is waiting for him. Pushed to the breaking point, Edward G. Robinson gives a powder-keg performance as lngram, the wronged man seeking righteous justice in BIackmaiI, a nifty revenge thriIIer outfitted with class (Ruth Hussey as John's staIwart wife) and grit (Gene Lockhart in a rare turn as a honey-voiced conniver). It all comes to an incendiary finale as Robinson, driven to cIear himseIf, takes on a face of fire confronting loathsome Lockhart at an oil-welI conflagration. There you'll aIso feel the burn of a consummate actor igniting genre material into flaming-good entertainment. |
