This review is on Knock on Any Door from 1949 which stars: Humphrey Bogart, John Derek, George Macready, Allene Roberts, Susan Perry and is directed by Nicholas Ray.
Andrew Morton (Bogart) is an attorney and Nick Romano (John Derek) is his client, a young man with long string of crimes behind him. After Romano lost his paycheck to gambling, hoping to buy his wife jewelry due to her announcing her pregnancy, he later finds her dead from suicide. When he turns to robbery again, he is caught by a cop and shoots him in frustration.
This is a TCM Vault release in partnership with SONY and has a great video and audio quality. This is part of a five Bogart film collection from TCM. The film is presented in b&w, Full screen and runs for about 100mins (1hr 40mins).
I would give this film a 8/10 and the DVD a 4/5. Overall this is a great DVD release and is a film I recommend.
