Working girl Kelly, wrenching herself from a city life of double-crosses and debauchery, ups sticks to Grantville, the seeming epitome of small town USA. Hounded by suspicious local sheriff Griff, she decides to put her illicit lifestyle behind her once and for all, and directs her new found energies into nursing at a local school for handicapped children. As Griff's crusade to run Kelly out of town gains momentum, she is granted clemency when she falls for Grant, descendent of the town's founding family and Griff's best friend. But just when the town begins to accept Kelly may be on the level, a murder and accompanying scandal threaten to crush her new life, destroy her new love and rip away the facade of decency which Grantville has tried for generations to maintain.
From its audacious opening scene to its dramatic, sobering finale Sam Fuller's film is a scathing indictment of smalltown piety and a bitterly ironic examination of the Hollywood melodrama. Grounded by a fierce, emotional performance by Constance Towers it features powerful and evocative photography from Stanley Cortez, master cinematographer of 'The Magnificent Ambersons' and 'Night Of The Hunter'.
