Behind City Lights
1945, English. Directed by John English.
DO WOMEN KNOW THEIR OWN HEARTS? The one didn't until almost too late!
This Republic programmer stars Lynne Roberts as a country gal who is slickered by a couple of city-fied jewel thieves, played by Peter Cookson and Jerome Cowan. Roberts is set up for a patsy by these two rogues, and nearly ends up in jail-and later on, narrowly escapes being rubbed out by gangsters.
