Cute little crime programmer

This short length crime film from Republic pictures belongs to the hundreds - if not thousands - of this kind that were produced during the forties and till the early fifties, before TV industry replace them by other thousands of episodes. Concerning westerns, dramas, crime, comedies.... It is fast paced, agreeable, fun to watch for gem digers. This is not a piece of jewel however...Just pleasant to see. One good fight sequence in a bar which is the proof that Republic Studios were gifted in this kind of scenes, thanks to the serial legacy and William Witney's too. The only problem is that this is not Witney the director here, but the bland George Blair, the studio "henchman" with Philip Ford or the likes as Franklyn Adreon. Watch out for John Doucette in a hoodlum supporting character. Good poignant scenes, that you did not expect to see in such a grade Z picture.
