Crime Drama

A career criminal, Max Dembo is determined to go straight after his latest stint in prison. He takes a mindless job in a cannery, patiently endures the abuse of his pompous parole officer, Earl, and begins a romance with a sympathetic girl from the employment office, Jenny. But when Earl erroneously busts Jack for drug abuse, the ex-con cracks, assaulting Earl and setting off on a reckless crime spree.
