In our first Edward G Robinson picture that was also nominated by The Academy, we see the classic mobster run a muckraking newspaper in a similarly amoral way. Robinson's Joseph Randall, newspaper editor, is ruthless and cold as he goes after the traumatic past of a private citizen. The film gives Robinson and Randall a chance to prove that he can be more than just a heartless monster though, as the newspaper editor struggles with his conscience and what he has done.
TW: This movie involves suicide. Please take care of yourself. :)
