Evelyn Venable plays the wife of a small-time crook who takes the fall for a payroll robbery and goes on the run, hiding out as a cook on a truck farm where Craig Reynolds's earnest farmer slowly falls for her — while her husband's gang closes in. A Crescent Pictures production released through Monogram, it is a compact poverty-row crime melodrama built on the era's favorite engine: a decent woman on the wrong side of the law through no fault of her own. Director William Nigh keeps it moving at the pace Monogram audiences expected. It entered the public domain after its copyright was never renewed.

Crime · Drama

A low-budget comedy directed by William Beaudine for Crescent Pictures. A department store owner's wife suspects her husband of infidelity when a series of misunderstandings make him appear guilty. The plot involves mistaken identities, a jealous wife, and a series of comic complications as the husband tries to prove his innocence. Betty Compson, a former silent star who had transitioned to B-pictures, plays the wife. The film is a typical product of the "Poverty Row" studios of the 1940s—fast, cheap, and unpretentious. The film is in the public domain.
