Raymond Hatton
In Cold Blood
IN COLD BLOOD is the powerful, true story of a callous murder, based upon the best-selling novel by Truman Capote. A prosperous and respected Kansas farmer, his wife and his two teenage children are wantonly and brutally slaughtered. The murderers are two mindless ex-convict drifters: Perry Smith (Robert Blake) and Dick Hickock (Scott Wilson). Neither of the men are sane enough to regret their crime. The story penetrates the inner workings of the criminals minds as it follows their purposeless meandering through Mexico and the United States in evasion of the law. After more than a year of wandering, the hunted men are finally caught, tried and in a dramatic conclusion condemned to hang.
Lady Killer
Oscar-vinner James Cagney har hovedrollen som kinovakt, så gangster og så filmstjerne i denne parodien av både Hollywood-gangsterfilmer og Hollywood generelt. Kinovakt Dan Quigley (Cagney-- Mister Roberts ) lærer fort at det er bedre bli med i mafiaen enn å bli et offer for mafiaen. Men med politiet tett i hælene, drar han til California, hvor han så blir tilbudt filmroller som gangster. Men berømmelsen lokker frem hans gamle bande fra underverdenen som han trodde han var ferdig med. Basert på fortellingen "The Finger Man" av Rosalind Keating Shaffer.
