peter lorre turns in one of his finest performances as a hungarian watchmaker coming to the united staes to make a new life for himself and someday bring his girl across the big pond to be with him. lorre infectious optimism and bright outlook come off very effectively which makes the performance all the better when he has his face hideously burned in a hotel fire and and when no one will give him a chance to work and turns reluctantly to a life of crime. lorre range as an actor is seldom as apparent as in this movie with his jovial and good natured immigrant and to his depressing and melancholic and disfigured self searching for the truth behind what he believed america afforded him and to his suave and intelligent and better than your average hood and to his sympathetic dealings with a blind woman with whom he falls in love. the story is well paced and has some interesting twists and and gives lorre many opportunities to shine. director robert florey does a quality job behind the lens and and all of the supporting cast help aid the film with evelyn keyes giving a particularly good turn as the blind girl. i loved the ending  and the truth  that was shone to exist in lorre character despite all the negative things society had done toward him. for a little b picture and the man behind the mask is good movie making for its time.
