The Big Shot

“HUMPHREY BOGART as the Last of the Racket Barons... the Big Shot of 'em all!”

Joseph "Duke" Berne (Humphrey Bogart) used to be a big shot, but he is a three-time loser now, and a fourth conviction means life in prison. He knows it, and that fear keeps him away from crime, until his past and his old cohorts push him into planning an armoured car robbery. Lewis Seiler directs Bogart in what would be his last gangster role for Warner Bros.
