Suspenseful, gritty and fast paced, two narcotics agents, Scott Brady and Richard Rober are on the heels of a gang of murderous drug dealers and their illegal distribution of opium from ships docked in the New York harbor. One of the agents is killed and the other goes undercover to bring down the gang. The leader of the drug operation is a young and suave Yul Brynner in one of his first film roles. Filmed entirely on location in New York City, the film comes to life with incredible images of the city such as a busy Grand Central Station and a long gone elevated train station at Canal Street, as well as wonderful shots of the NYC maritime area. Narrated by future news-reader Chet Huntley. Good scenes, good plot, good cast.
