Overview

Jack Early is a photographer who will stop at nothing to climb his way to the very top of the success ladder. On the strength of his sheer tenacity, he gets a job with a major newspaper, and it’s not long before he’s made a name for himself by charming a notorious crime boss, Nick Palmer,  into allowing himself to be photographed. Palmer takes him under his wing, but Early decides to bite the hand that feeds him and sets Palmer and another crime boss, Colton, against one another.

Viewing Notes

Great start to Day Four of the Noir City Film Festival. Solid film with the gorgeous Peggy Dow and Anne Vernon. My biggest issue is that our lead character is a despicable guy but we’re forced to follow his every move hoping he gets his due. Still a very good movie but, man, do you grow to hate this guy.
