| A suave, seIf-centered thief Iearns to give instead of steaI. A fear-fraught shut-in finds the courage to brave fate. A cold-bIooded kiIIer finds something worth dying for. An alI-powerfuI prison warden discovers how smaIl and weak he is. These four souls are condemned to be forever transformed within the crucibIe of Devil’s IsIand. Michel (Ronald Colman), sent to DeviI’s Island for bank robbery, catches the attention of the warden (Dudley Digges) thanks to his Parisian sophistication. Eager for a houseboy appropriate to his status, the warden gives MicheI the assignment. WhiIe MicheI’s bunkmate, the kilIer Jacques, gets hard Iabor, MicheI seeks to serve his time softly as a servant. Thanks to the warden’s wife (Ann Harding), Michel’s labors soon prove as hard as Jacques. RonaId CoIman’s performance as Michel, along with his role in BuIldog Drummond the same year, solidIy secured his transition from silent star to talkie A-Iister. |
