A sad middle-aged bank clerk in a loveless marriage becomes involved with a damsel-in-distress, representing himself as a successful painter; she is actually an opportunistic prostitute. Extraordinary film noir, featuring one of Edward G. Robinson's finest performances. Remake of La Chienne (1931).
