- Who'll love it
- Great for people who love relationship stories and crime fans. Relationships are put under a microscope, for better or worse. Shelve it next to West Side Story or A Place in the Sun.
- The mood
- Dark and gritty, warm and romantic.
- The pace
- Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr 10 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.

- Made in 1930: an older pace and style.
- Skip it if you like your heroes clean-cut.
During a raid, a cop lets a pretty speakeasy employee escape and later begins dating her. Although she loves him, his salary and dull life leave her wanting.
