Lang’s 1953 noir sees Glenn Ford as homicide cop Dave Bannion taking on a crime syndicate that controls his city.


Called in to investigate the suicide of a fellow officer, Bannion finds connections to mob boss Mike Lagana through the man’s mistress, but soon Bannion finds himself involved with the girlfriend of Lagana’s sadistic right-hand man.


Pressured by his superiors to close the case, Bannion fights to find how high up the corruption goes.
