This is the sort of rare movie I like to see turn up. It isn't hilarious. It isn't a film noir -- and when a new noir turns up I get very excited.

But here we have Warren William, never my favorite, doing a bang-up job.

His character has fallen for a nightclub singer. She has a large family, who seem to be involved in his life too. Enter his friend from times gone by: "Pig Head" Bancroft. He is to be best man at the wedding.

Pig Head sizes this crew up on his own. Let's say he adds two and two and comes up with four and a half. It's great fun seeing things resolve themselves.

This is not a cast of big names. It's a lot of character actors. And they do a splendid job!
