    DirectorFritz LangStarsEdward G. RobinsonJoan BennettDan Duryea
    A humble cashier (Edward G. Robinson) paints in his spare time and puts up with his shrewish wife. One night he rescues a woman (Joan Bennett) from a beating by her abusive and greedy boyfriend (Dan Duryea), who knows a meal ticket when he sees one. This film follows the plot of Renoir's La Chienne closely until almost the end. Although it lacks the satiric bite and class consciousness of the former film, it is fine noir fare.
