Jimmy idolizes bootlegger Matt, and when he refuses to implicate his friend, he is sent to reform school. He befriends Shorty, a boy with a heart condition, and escapes to let the world know about the brutal conditions.
Low-budget crime drama with a simple, moralizing plot; not much challenge for Bette Davis in one of her first roles.
Halliwell (no star): "Primitive cheapie notable only for the early appearance of Bette Davis."
Maltin**: "Low-budget quickie...Interesting mainly for early appearances of O'Brien and Davis."
