Roy's a killer, a bigtime bandit, and Bjg Mack has “sprung” him to pull a $500,000 job on a desert resort near Los Angeles. The plot thickens handily, and Roy gets along fine with his assignment except for that sentimental streak in him. Tt makes him soft, first, on a crippled waif of a gal (Joan Leslie), soft on a mutt dog that’s bad luck, soft on the one-time dime-a-dance girl who'’s his moll and confederate. He gets his just desel high on a crag of the highest Sierra, just because of that sentimental streak. Of course, he’d have starved shortly any- way, or been plugged by the surrounding cops—but it makes a nice theatrical finish. “High Sierra,” for that matter, is a nice theatrical picture. It's as gripping as the better gang films of old and Bogart and Lupino hoth are first-rate. “COME LIVE WITH ME.” Screenplay by Patterson Me- Nutt from tory by Virginia Van Upp. Directed by Clarence Brown.

But it is a plight without solution and before many more reels it becomes apparent that the movie- makers haven't any to offer.
