Basic story of someone convicted of a crime he did not commit and trying to get the real killer to come forward. Not bad or anything. Just doesn't come to life all that much. Does have a solid cast who makes it better than it had any right to be, with young Fay Wray & Jean Arthur making their presence felt, along with a slick performance by Clive Brook in the center of things. It's also a very different role for Charles 'Buddy' Rogers as the bad man of the movie.
