A very interesting noir!

Quite strong, except the happy ending isn't earned and the stunt dummy used in a scene where a young Black girl is thrown out of a car is ridiculous.

Thematically reminiscent of 12 Angry Men, with the style of the best noires.Only downside is the noireness of it all can make it almost depressing at times because of how repeatedly bleak most of the movie is.
