ParamountDirected by Lewis Milestone
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Turner Classic Movies)
Nominated: Best Picture
Pedestrian story of cops and gangsters failed to hold my attention. The gangsters are gun-toting, pin-striped caricatures, in fact I was wondering if this was supposed to be a comedy. The police are mostly bumbling, corrupt fools, with the exception of Police Captain McQuigg, who is sent to the country after trying to arrest one of the more influential gangsters. Marie Prevost does add some spice as the blonde, flirtatious bombshell.
