Synopsis: A man returns to his hometown after a long absence. He is fetching his long-time girlfriend whom he intends to marry against her uncle's will. He suddenly finds himself in a tight spot as he is framed for said uncle's murder.
Appraisal: Watchable thriller, which is mechanically structured around establishing sympathy early on (toward a random acquaintance the hero makes at a casino), then creating tension with the fact that the hero is already engaged, then restablishing the viewer's shattered hopes through the revelations of the plot. The ending is abrupt.
