Tuesday, December 14 - This Side of the Law

This Side of the Law (1950)

Kent Smith plays David Cummins, a vagrant who is baled out by an attorney named Phillip Cagle who wants him to impersonate a missing millionaire in order to divide a $3,000,000 estate. Cummings agrees to do it for $5,000, but he walks into a hornet's nest: a wife who doesn't seem to like him much, a brother who detests him, and a sister-in-law who likes him a little too much. It's all pretty confusing, as Cummins tries to do the right thing by the millionaire's obviously hurt wife. Then murder complicates the situation further.
