Joan Smalls


Convict's Code (1939)


A man is framed and sent to prison for a crime he didn't commit so when he is let out on limited parole, he sets out to clear his name and find the real criminals.

Lively, but average 30s crime drama is quite predictable and only mildly entertaining.

Gangster Story (1959)


A bankrobber escapes from prison and then goes robbing banks.

Low-budget crime drama, Walter Matthau's only attempt at directing, is quite a lackluster affair with some quite wooden performances - with the exception of his own role.

Maltin*1/2: "Matthau's lone film as director is a low-quality, ultra-low-budget chronicle..."
