The Street with No Name
Counter Attack!
Directed by William Keighley
Produced by 20th Century Fox
A taut 1940s noir procedural about an FBI agent infiltrating a criminal organization, built on undercover deception and mounting danger.
After two gang-related killings in "Center City," a suspect (who was framed) is arrested, released on bail...and murdered. Inspector Briggs of the FBI recruits a young agent, Gene Cordell, to go undercover in the shadowy Skid Row area (alias George Manly) as a potential victim of the same racket. Soon, Gene meets Alec Stiles, neurotic mastermind who's "building an organization along scientific lines." Stiles recruits Cordell, whose job becomes a lot more dangerous.
