Thieves' Highway tells the story of a veteran returning from war only to find that his father has been injured and has lost his legs to an unscrupulous produce marketer. Seeking revenge, the son travels to San Francisco, looking for the man and to extract payment for what was done to his father. During his journey, he learns that friendship and loyalty are more valuable than money and that money does strange things to people.
I liked this movie, in spite of its edginess. It's dark atmosphere did not subtract from it's feel good ending, which I appreciated. It's alway nice to see a movie where justice prevails and the good guy wins. (4.0/6.0)
