Thunderbolt

“George Bancroft making Love With the Determination of a Bull Dog! Fay Wray His Foil and Richard Arlen His Enemy”

In 1929, a prison holds a gangster known as Thunderbolt Jim Lang (George Bancroft), who is waiting out his execution. Josef von Sternberg puts a new prisoner in the next cell, Bob Moran (Richard Arlen), an innocent man framed for a crime who loves Thunderbolt's girl, Ritzy (Fay Wray), and has no idea whose girl she is. Thunderbolt only wants to keep breathing long enough to get his hands on the boy.
