Film7.2DramLilly (Baby Face), sefalet içinde yaşadığı onca yıldan sonra hayat basamaklarını tırmanmanın kolay yolunu bulmuştur; önüne gelenle yatmak... Lilly, babasının gizlice içki sattığı, bodrumdaki barda başlayan yolculuğuna, New York’un şaaşalı ofis binalarının çatı katında devam edecektir. Üstelik tüm basamakları tek tek çıkarak... Bankanın Alt-Düzey Yöneticisi Jimmy McCoy, Lilly’e önemli bir terfi imkanı olduğunu söyler. Fakat bir şart vardır; bankanın müdürüyle yatmak... Jimmy’nin son zamanlarda görememekten şikayetçi olduğu Lilly şöyle der; "Geceleri yatağa erken girebilmek için çok çalışıyorum."
Film7.8DramMervyn LeRoy’un, .Robert E. Burns’ün otobiyografik hikâyesini temel alan, Ben Bir Pranga Kaçağıyım, şansı yaver gitmeyen bir 1. Dünya Savaşı gazisi olarak, uydurma bir suç yüzünden prangaya vurulup, uzak güney eyaletlerinde ağır işçiliğe mahkûm edilmesinin ardından, merhametsiz bir suçluya dönüşen masum bir adamın canlı bir portresini sunar. Adam dürüst bir hayat sürmek için kaçar, ihanete uğrar, yeniden kaçar ve yakalanmış bir kaçak olarak ömür boyu hapis cezasına çarptırılır. Kayayı bile orta yerinden çatlatacak sadist gardiyanlar, firarlar (birçok filme temel oluşturmuş, uluyan tazıların bataklıktaki takip sahnesi dâhil), hücre cezası, parmaklıkların ardındaki kendine özgü dil başarılı bir biçimde perdeye taşınır. Sırf defalarca gönderme yapılmış bir film olması (en son Coen Kardeşler’in O Brother, Where Art Thou?/ Nerdesin Be Birader? filminde) açısından seyredilmeye değer bir yapım. Modası geçmiş olsa da halen ünlü ve unutulmaz son cümlesiyle seyirciyi derinden etkiliyor.
