The movie proclaims that this is filmed in the real city. Two men kill Jean Dexter in NYC. One of them gets drunk and a conscience. The other one kills him and throws the body into the river. Police detectives Dan Muldoon (Barry Fitzgerald) and Jimmy Halloran (Don Taylor) are assigned Dexter's case. This is a rather dry police procedural. The real locations give it an almost neorealistic feel. The early narration give it a news report feel. The acting is nothing special. Fitzgerald is more of a character actor. Taylor is rather stiff. The investigation procedural is a little bit interesting. The most interesting aspect of this movie are the location shoots. The vibrant street life and then the final chase are all terrific.
