This review is from: Castle on the Hudson (DVD)
Tommy Gordon(John Garfield)a hoodlum,is convicted of robbery and sent to Sing Sing.Tommy sneers at it all.The only person Tommy has any use for is Kay Manners(Ann Sheridan)who wishes Tommy would quit the rackets.
Tommy believes Fridays are unlucky for him. Tommy meets the warden Walter Long(Pat OBrien)whos tough but honest. Tommy meets one of the cons Steve Rockford(Burgess Meredith)who along with another con(Guinn Big Boy Williams)is planning an escape.On the night of the escape Tommy remembers its Friday and refuses to go along.The escape is a failure and Steve is killed. Tommys lawyer,Ed Crowley(Jerome Cowan)has little use for him and his only interest is Kay.After Kay is badly hurt in a car accident defending herself from Ed word gets to Walter.The warden gives Tommy a parole with the agreement he return after he visits Kay. Will Tommy keep his word?Watch it and see. This was a remake of 200,000 Years In Sing Sing with Spencer Tracy and Bette Davis. Question,Why was Jerome Cowan one of the most hated actors in Hollywood.Answer,He prosecuted Santa Claus in Miracle On 34TH Street. Also at the end of High Sierra he sneered at Bogarts dead body and said,BIG SHOT,EARL.WELL,WELL,HE AINT MUCH NOW,IS HE? |
