Synopsis: On Christmas Eve, a lawyer and his friend steal money from a strip club owner. The sexy manager of the club wants in on it.
Appraisal: Although the plot is vague on some details (e.g., how they stole the money), and the film doesn't really have any major plot element that hasn't been explored hundreds of times before, it is done in such an elegant way - and is so beautifully acted (all over, but if I had to choose one performance it would be Platt's) - that the final result comes off as a fresh addition to the noir genre.
