The story

Joe Bell (John Garfield) becomes embittered after he is jailed for 16 months for a burglary he did not commit. Later, while riding in a boxcar with two brothers, he gets into a fight with a robber (played by an uncredited Ward Bond) and is sentenced to a work farm for 90 days. There, he becomes friends with Mabel Alden (Priscilla Lane), which displeases Charles Garreth (Stanley Ridges), her stepfather and the farm's foreman.
