Roadblock

A minor film noir effort.  It's basically about a tough-guy insurance investigator who falls for a femme fatale who is bent on finding a rich guy.  By which she means, not him.  But he's desperate to get her, so he cooks up a scheme with a local crook to steal some cash being transferred between banks.  But in the meantime, she's fallen in love with him, and so after the crime is put in place, she ironically doesn't need him to be rich anymore.  At that point, like in many good film noirs, it's too late.

It contains a bit of dialogue I love, early in the movie when she is still in the take-no-prisoners golddigger mode:

Her: I'm tired of being kicked around.  I'm gonna start out with silver fox and go straight to mink.

Him: Then ermine, sable?

Her: Everything.  Know what everything is?

Him: Happiness doesn't count, eh?

Her: Can happiness buy money?

I also love that in the car chase at the end of the movie, his destination to get away is Glendale.
