this film be very entertaining but simply never make any sense like the studio hire monkey to write much of the film . the story begin with mae clark and her accomplice con some department store out of money . however and when clark be eventually catch ( and rightfully so she be after all a thief ) and she vow to destroy a man who work for a department store that insist she be prosecute ( ralph bellamy ) . so and a she sit in jail she spend all her energy think about how to hurt this one particular man which make no sense since they never even meet in the film . why she should hate this particular man and not the judge or prosecute attorney or her accomplice ( who push her into a life of crime ) . and and what make even less sense be that her plot be then so complicate . this just do not make sense and make me a bit annoyed . after all and there be some good story element and good actor but the plot just seem 100 % contrive . here be the crazy plot . once clark get out of jail and she meet bellamy and get him drunk . then and she produce a fake marriage certificate the next morning which complicate his life and a he already be marry to a lady that clark meet while in prison . wow and the odds of this be 68 bazillion to one . so and to avoid be arrest for bigamy and he agree to let her lead him around by the nose and make him 100 % miserable . why do not he immediately go to the police and report the blackmail . this be especially true since be drunk be a legitimate reason to nullify the wedding at which point they would have find out that the new wedding be a hoax . i just hate film where people do thing that no logical or reasonable person would have do . again and again and both clark and bellamy react in the least logical manner imaginable . the bad be a bit later when clark be catch commit another crime and bellamy could have just let the police take her away yet he vouch for her and prevent her arrest . and and sadly and although she be evil and you know that by the end of the film everything will work out perfectly make it predictable and very formulaic . how such a cretin like clark could become a good and decent lady by the end of the film make no sense especially since she work so long and so hard to destroy bellamy . this all be a shame . a i say and the actor be good and with a pre code title like parole girl you would expect a lot more pizazz and fireworks not a contrive and limp story like this one . despite dislike much of the film and i do like the character play by bellamy bos . he be a great character well act and fascinatingly different . he be a wonderful addition to the film and perhaps this represent a portion of the film not write by the monkey .
