O larápio Skip McCoy está fisgado num grande golpe. Quando o atrevido ex-recluso, já por três vezes condenado, furta a carteira a Candy, fisga um peixe maior do que aquele que consegue içar: um pedaço de microfilme com segredos americanos confidenciais. Seguidos por manipuladores agentes federais e os involuntários correios comunistas, Skip e Candy vêem-se envolvidos numa estratégia precária que opõe ganância a redenção, Direita a Comunistas e paixão a instinto de sobrevivência.

Directed at a relentless pace, this noir entertains above all in the way it deftly uses the role of the femme fatale to weave together the three sides of the male conflict, and in the way it violently brushes her off, making her a tool of the others for most of the runtime. I didn't like the romantic line at all, it looked very unrealistic, but on the other hand, I really liked Jean Peters's face and the dramatically escalated rhythm of the narrative, with the pocket-picking motif imaginatively incorporated and punctuated. The good old-school.

A quite intense film noir, fairly fast-paced, that won't let you catch your breath and you will enjoy it until the end as a journey towards something quite dark. An interesting concept of how easily one can lose something important, and the consequences it can have on people who find themselves in the wrong place at the wrong time.
