Surprisingly intelligent "B" feature film from 1953 with a moral twist in the tale.Our sympathy rests with Cleo Moore's character by the circumstances of the raw deal she gets in life as a waitress when she robs her mean boss to recover money her boss twisted out of her father.She sneaks into his room and steals the $25000 and hides it but is then arrested for robbery.Readily admitting the robbery she is nevertheless sent to gaol.There she proves what a good sort she is and obtains remission from her sentence.Now working for another cafe owner she shows sympathy for him when due to his chronic gambling habit he loses the cafe.She learnt a valuable lesson in gaol about gardening how tree roots are so powerful they can move solid objects like tin boxes full of money.After her release she chooses to donate the stolen money to the "Sacred Heart Orphanage" and the soundtrack plays an organ rendition of "Ombra Mai Fu" by G.F. Handel.It kept my attention and I awarded it 6/10.
