What Johnny Stool Pigeon Is About
A federal agent makes a deal with a former criminal in prison in order to bring down the organisation running the heroin trade from the inside, and the two of them travel from San Francisco to the Mexican border. The agent’s cover can break at any moment; the man beside him has calculations of his own, and how far either trusts the other is never settled. In William Castle’s seventy five minute American film, Howard Duff plays the agent, Dan Duryea the informer and Shelley Winters the woman who comes between them, with a young Tony Curtis in the cast. It was completed in 1949 and is one of the postwar examples of the undercover crime picture.
