Call it Murder - One of Humphrey Bogart's first featured roles as a gangster in this story of a jury foreman, Edward Weldon, who's questioning leads to the death sentence for the murderess Ethel Saxon. Just as Saxon goes to the electric chair Weldon's daughter, Stella, claims to have killed her lover, the gangster Gar Boni, (Bogart). Now Weldon must help his daughter avoid frying on the electric chair.

Great Guy - The new chief deputy inspector of the New York Department of Weights and Measures, pugnacious Johnny Cave, (Cagney), steps on the toes of crooked city alderman Marty Cavanaugh and gets increasing pressure, both political and strong-arm, to stop investigating a systematic effort to cheat the public by giving them less product than they pay for.

The Lucky Texan - Jerry Mason (Wayne), a young Texan, and Jake Benson (Hayes), an old rancher, become partners and strike it rich with a gold mine. They then find their lives complicated by bad guys and a woman.
