This movie helped make the gangster genre. It may seem like it's been all done before but this was new. It's about a gangster and his spoiled girlfriend. A dweeb, who works for the gangster, falls for the girl and vice versa. Then the gangster is put in jail. I liked the dweeb and the chemistry between the girl and him. I've always liked Josef Von Sternberg's movies so I'm glad that the Criterion Collection took the time to reissue this.
