The Human Jungle

Enjoyable Noir. The lead character, Danforth, has passed the Bar and is ready to leave the force to begin his career as a lawyer. The problem is that while visiting his police chief friend in a troubled precinct he observes weak leadership and lazy cops. Danforth decides to defer the law career and become a part of the solution when asked to lead the precinct. A crackdown and manhunt ensue as Danforth cleans up the city and the precinct. Great action culminating with a chase in a Pabst Blue Ribbon beer factory. Excellent backdrop and not one drop of beer spilled. Danforth makes a surprise career/life decision at the conclusion of the film.
