Hank Martin (Cagney) is a Southern hustler and con artist who tries to make it big as a backwoods politician. He steps on anyone and everyone he meets until he's stopped by a bullet. This would be just a so-so movie without Cagney and his favorite director (Raoul Walsh), but with them it packs a pretty good wallop.
