quicksand (1950)

"I can put it back tomorrow as soon as I get that Twenty bucks from Buzz."
An auto mechanic Dan (Mickey Rooney) takes $20 from the cash register, so he can impress Vera (Jeanne Cagney), and take her out. Unfortunately this simple action starts a chain of events that plunges him into a series of events that make him ever more desperate, and brings him into the sphere of Nick (Peter Lorre)...
A morality play, with an unlikable central character, that soon looses its appeal.
