A newspaper man frames a man's final year in flashback: convicted of
a murder he insists was a frame-up, he is paroled into the custody
of a crusading reporter who intends to prove his innocence, with the
dead man's own wife falling for the prisoner along the way. Russell
Hopton and Mary Brian star in this Allied Pictures drama, produced
by M.H. Hoffman and directed by silent-era veteran E. Mason Hopper.
It is a depression-era crime story in which the real antagonist is
the machinery of justice itself. It entered the public domain after
its copyright was never renewed.
