The Wrong Road

A young couple decide that the fastest way to the life they were promised is to rob his bank of a hundred thousand dollars, hide it, do their time and collect. They do the time. Then the insurance investigator walks behind them wherever they go, waiting. An hour about what prison does to a plan, tighter than the budget suggests, from James Cruze, who had directed The Covered Wagon and was near the end. Richard Cromwell, Helen Mack, Lionel Atwill. Republic, 1937.
