Directed by Howard Hawks, written by Ben Hecht, Armitage Trail and W.R. Burnett, produced by Howard Hawks and Howard Hughes.
Average viewer score of 7.4/10 from 714 ratings.
Odd to see Howard Hawks on this genre, but he directs this workman-like gangster effort steadily, managing to convey some semblance of the environment of fear and violence without actually turning it into a visual gory bloodbath.
