"What do you think of him, Glenda? Is he worth saving?"
A prison psychologist takes in a petty criminal, Frank Clemmons (Dirk Bogarde), so he can study his motivations and treat him. Unfortunately he has a beautiful young wife Glenda (Alexis Smith), who soon falls for Franks rough ways, and thus starts the psychological games-playing between dispassionate psychologist, career criminal and the frustrated wife.
A standard potboiler is lifted byLosey, using the film noir staples of, jazz. crime, and passion, all centred around Bogarde as the young man in turmoil.
