The last of Robert Blake's three "Joe Dancer movies" finds the private investigator framed for manslaughter as he tries to uncover a Hollywood scandal that could ruin a studio and destroy a top star's career.
The first of three private-eye movies created by Robert Blake about rugged Joe Dancer as the forerunner to a prospective but unrealized series after the retirement of his "Baretta" character. In the initial outing, Blake, as Dancer, follows a trail of bodies through a maze of corruption involving a politically ambitious Beverly Hills family.
Angie Rossini (Natalie Wood) es una inocente italiana que vive con su madre y sus hermanos, y que trabaja en Macy's. Un fin de semana en una cabaña conoce a Rocky (McQueen), un músico que la deja embarazada. Angie lo buscará para hablarle del embarazo y de su intención de abortar. El muchacho se encarga de buscar un médico y de ayudarla económicamente pero, mientras tanto, se van enamorando y, poco a poco, nace en ellos el deseo de tener el hijo.
