You Can't Get Away with Murder
AMERICA'S TWO-FISTER ANSWER to the Gun-Mad Rats Who Rule the Underworld!
A gritty 1930s crime drama about a young man corrupted by a ruthless criminal mentor, caught in a web of murder, coercion, and prison injustice.
Johnnie learns crime from petty thug Frank Wilson. When Wilson kills a pawnbroker with a gun stolen from Johnnie's sister Madge's fiance Fred Burke, Fred goes to Sing Sing's death house. Wilson uses all the pressure can to keep Johnnie silent, even after he and Johnnie themselves wind up in the big house.
