Oh My! Experiencing Robert Taylor on the big screen sends your heart a-flutter! He has a hint of William Powell, with a smidgen of Clark Gable. What could be better?
Johnny Eager has just been released from jail after a long stint and fools his probation officer into thinking he is a good, clean living taxi driver. In reality, he is the head of a massive crime syndicate which specialises in gambling, and couldn't be more dangerous if he tried.
Things hot up when he meets Liz, a beautiful socialite, little realising that she is the daughter of his arch nemesis and someone he really should be avoiding. As a result, Johnny tries to use Liz in a prank that goes horribly wrong, rendering her on the brink of self destruction.
Turner is so naïve and innocent in this, and Taylor is so gorgeous that they just smoulder on the screen together. Great film.
