Escape from Crime

Ultra-Prolific Director Lederman was Known for His Kinetic Pace and Under Budget Productions. This is a Remake of the James Cagney's Pre-Code Exploitation Movie, Picture Snatcher (1932).

Things Develop at a Frenzied and Breath Taking Pace as Our Hero is Framed. Paroled from Prison and Unable to Find Work because he is an Ex-Con (in typical WB social commentary), His Fate Determined by being at the Right Place All the Time as He Snaps Photos of a Bank Robbery and becomes an Award Winning Professional Shutterbug Always being on the Scene to Shoot a Scene of Incredible Drama.

As Fate, Yes Again, would have it, the Old Gang that Set Him Up are the Criminals and this Creates a Problem for the Trying to Go Straight Husband and Daddy. Trying to be a Family Man is Not as Easy as it Seems and He is Thrust into a Bad Situation. He Makes the Best of It by Agreeing to Film His Pal being Executed in the Electric Chair.

This One is Filled to the Brim with this and that and the Final Shootout is a Frenzied, also Fate Filled Finale, that is a Kinetic Gun Battle Free for All that is B-Movie Making at its Best. There is No Time to Think in the Running Time of Just Over Fifty Minutes. Yes, thats 50 Minutes.
