An early prison drama about a young woman who comes out worse than she came in. The film looks and feels like a typical noir, but the story is more focused on drama than crime. The biggest problem with that is the horrendous performances, which make it extremely hard to care for any of it.
The presentation is also rather dull. Apart from the usual darker black-and-white cinematography, the camera work and editing are negligible. The plot is basic and predictable, and the film has no reason to extend beyond the 90-minute mark. Not a great film, despite its more serious reputation.
