Desert heat, strangers meet, violence flares -- granddaddy of the genre

This predecessor of The Petrified Forest (criminals on the lam change the lives of assorted characters at an isolated lunchroom) shows its origin as a Broadway play, but it's faster moving, less pretentious, and a lot less talky than the better known movie. The large cast is wonderful, especially the great Aline MacMahon; their characters well defined; and the direction and cinematography are crisp and professional. It's well worth the hour it takes to watch it.

Trivia
Condemned by the Catholic Legion of Decency just before it changed its name to the National Legion of Decency in April, 1934. It was added to their first list of banned films, published in the May 14, 1934 edition of Motion Picture Daily. They particularly objected to the scene in which "George" leaves "Olga's" room in the morning and buttons his coat. The Office also objected to a line of dialogue delivered by one of the showgirls to her gold-digging companion, "Say, it's your turn to sit up front with that old thigh-pincher."

Errores
Frank, the chauffeur, carries a tub of water for one of the rich lady's baths as if it weren't heavy.

Citas
George: Want another barbequed sandwich?
Jeff: I can hear the warden ask if I have any last words before they turn on the heat and you ask if I want another barbequed sandwich?
