Plot summary
Bigoted, white ex-con Earl Slater teams up with Dave Burke, a dishonorably-discharged former cop, to rob a bank in upstate New York. Johnny Ingram, a jazz musician with a gambling problem, reluctantly joins Slater and Burke after a hoodlum named Bacco threatens Johnny's family over unpaid debts. Everything that can go wrong with the heist does so and racially generated friction boils over as Burke and Johnny must choose the greater threat to their lives--the prejudice that divides them or the authorities nipping at their heels.—Mae Moreno
