What she knows can bring down the mob. If she lives to tell it.

No one rats on mobster Johnny Vanning. That's a message delivered to every would-be stoolie when Vanning's henchmen slash a gangland insignia on Mary Dwight's face.

The real life saga of prostitutes whose testimony put Lucky Luciano behind bars inspired

Marked Woman. Bette Davis, sinking her claws into the role that marked her return to Hollywood after her legal fight for better projects, plays courageous Mary. In a rare '30s good-guy turn, Humphrey Bogart co-stars as a crusading prosecutor. And versatile Lloyd Bacon (

42nd Street, Knute Rockne - All American) directs this most unusual of Depression-era gangster films centered not on the crimelord or the D.A., but on women victimized by the mob.
