US treasury agents indict a gang leader for tax evasion.
I usually really enjoy Glenn Ford movies, This, I found really dull with a slow moving plot, delivery of lines all played on one level and a premise that just never grabbed my interest. 2/10

Adventure in Manhatten 1936
An actress helps an ace reporter to foil a bank robbery by a master criminal.
An extremely watchable crime caper with both Jean Arthur & Joel McCrea, putting in delightful performances. Have to say, the stage set for the WW1 drama that covers the attempted robbery was brilliant. 6/10

The King and four Queens 1956
A cowboy braves the wrath of a lady sharpshooter to gain gold and the hand of one of her four daughters.
Western's were so plentiful in their day, that you needed an original story for a movie to retain your interest. This certainly is original. Gable has never been my favourite actor and once again, he lacked personality and just seemed to drift throught the film. The old lady was marvelous and the four women a delight. It was fun seeing which one Gable would eventually end up with. 6/10
