When a cheeky bellhop meets a dishy blonde, the pair set a criminal scheme in motion to rob guests at the hotel where they work. However, while trying to stay one-step ahead of the law, an even bigger con-artist has his eyes fixed firmly on the prize. Released under the title ‘Larceny Lane’ in Britain, James Cagney and Joan Blondell’s fiery and frank chemistry is only made spicier by the uncertainty of their characters’ loyalty to each other.
