Good Try, But....
22 December 2023
When the cops close down Lyle Talbot's kootch show, he and wife/dancer Margo try rolling a drunk..... who turns out to be a cop. They scram, with Talbot disappearing and Margo running into a church, where she finds a baby. She takes it home and her life begins to change.

It's one of the movies that Grand National produced in order to get out of Poverty Row, and they went under before they could release it; Columbia picked it up. While it has an interesting story about redemption, and some good performances by Walter Abel and William Collier Sr., Margo's performance seems off, not helped by her low affect and singular voice. Don't blink or you'll miss Dorothy Devore in her last screen appearance.
