This action-drama was inspired. by an incident that- occurred in 1871 at Monte Diablo Lake, Cali- fornia—now named “Convict Lake” | Jecause of it—and deals fictionally with the thrilling consequences that come from a hand of escaped con- victs taking refuge in a community momentarily inhabited only by wo- men, most of whom are scarving for male affection. In the course of its action, “'I’hel * | Secret of Convict Lake” manages to itir up three romances, a murder | and five killings to make it a taut drama of suspense. The large sup- porting cast including Ann Dvorak,l | Barbara Bates, Cyril Cusack, Rich- ard Hylton, Helen Westcott, Jean- | Ruth Dongelly and | Harry Cart: ates a diverse set »f characters, giving the picture I(.sl unusual twists.
