A stylish example of the doomed-lovers-on-the-run subgenre inspired by real-life outlaws Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow, and one of the best B movies ever made.
Fourteen-year-old Bart Tare is sent to reform school for stealing a gun. Back home after a hitch in the army, the adult Bart (John Dall) falls for carnival sharpshooter Laurie (Peggy Cummins) and joins the show. But the lovers soon find themselves out of work and drift into a life of crime, for
which Laurie shows a feral aptitude. She eventually commits murder during a heist, and the law--including Bart's boyhood friend, Clyde (Harry Lewis), now a sheriff--begins to close inexorably in.
