This Gun For Hire

The movie that made Alan Ladd a star. He's a cold-blooded killer with a soft spot for kids and cats, and he's out to get back at a double-crossing nightclub owner who paid him off with 'hot' money. Secret formulas, Nazis and vicious chauffeurs pop up in this film noir classic based on Graham Greene's thriller. Veronica Lake is the beautiful femme fatale co-starring with Laird Cregar and Robert Preston.
